Hiring for this office runs through Jessica Hardie, who has led Preservation as Managing Attorney since 2011, fifteen years in this role, plus another seven years practicing law in New Orleans before that. She knows what a New Orleans title file actually looks like because she’s been the one closing it, not overseeing it from somewhere else.

|---|---|---|
| Escrow Officer | Manages the closing from contract to funding, coordinates with lenders, agents, and clients, and owns the file start to finish | Two or more years in title, escrow, real estate, or lending; comfort owning client communication under deadline |
| Escrow Associate | Supports the closing process, document prep, coordination, and client follow-up alongside an Escrow Officer | Two or more years in title, escrow, real estate, or lending; strong organizational habits |
| Title Searcher | Researches public records to trace a property’s ownership and legal history before a sale can close | Two or more years in title or a related records-heavy field; comfort in courthouse and parish records |
| Title Examiner | Reviews the search results and clears any issues, liens, judgments, missing links in the chain of title, before closing | Two or more years in title examination or a closely related legal/records background |

Frequently Asked Questions
-
Do I need title insurance experience to apply?
Two or more years in title, escrow, real estate, or lending is what we’re looking for across every open role. If your background is in one of those adjacent fields rather than title specifically, we still want to hear from you.
-
Is the initial call really confidential?
Yes. If your background fits an opening, our hiring team reaches out with a private call to talk through the role, even if you’re not sure yet whether you’re ready to leave your current position.
-
Why does Preservation only have one office?
We’re a single-location team by design. Every person here works the New Orleans market and only the New Orleans market, which means the person handling your file actually knows the neighborhoods, the parish offices, and the closing quirks specific to this city.
-
What if there’s no opening listed for the role I want?
Apply anyway. We keep strong applications on file through open recruitment and reach out as soon as a seat opens.
-
What’s it like working at a boutique office versus a larger title company?
You’re not one of hundreds of files moving through a call center. Preservation is a small team on Magazine Street, and the people you work with are the same people who’ll be in the office with you day to day.
-
Who do I contact with questions before applying?
Email our hiring team at hr@knox-title.com. That inbox is shared across every Knox-Title brand, so you can ask about opportunities at Preservation or elsewhere in the family from one place.

“I do the hiring calls myself, so if you apply, you’re talking to the person who actually makes the decision, not getting passed around. What I’m looking for is simple: two years or more in title, escrow, real estate, or lending, and someone who wants to work on a small team where they’re not just a file number.”Jessica Hardie, Managing Attorney, Preservation Title Company · Preservation since 2011
