Existing third party relationships is an important consideration when choosing conveyancing lawyers.

Please explain the implications if my lawyer’s firm is removed from the Santander Conveyancing panel ahead of completing my conveyancing in Bethnal Green?
The first thing to point out is that, this is a very rare occurrence. In most cases even where a law firm is removed off of a panel the lender would allow the completion to go ahead as the lender would appreciate the difficulties that they would place you in if you have to instruct a new solicitor days before completion. In a worst case scenario where the lender insists that you instruct a new firm then it is possible for a very good lawyer to expedite the conveyancing albeit that you may pay a significant premium for this. The analogous situation is where a buyer instructs a lawyer, exchanges contracts and the law firm is shut down by a regulator such as the SRA. Again, in this situation you can find lawyers who can troubleshoot their way to bring the conveyancing to a satisfactory conclusion - albeit for a fee.
My bid for a property was accepted at auction in Bethnal Green. Conveyancing is necessary. What happens now?
Now that you have for in every practical sense signed on the dotted line you should choose a conveyancing lawyer quickly as you will have a fast approaching a drop dead date to complete the transaction.

This question may be naive but I am wet behind the ears as FTB of a two bedroom flat in Bethnal Green. Do I pick up the keys to the house on the completion date from my solicitor? If so, I will use a local conveyancing solicitor in Bethnal Green?
There is no need to visit the lawyers office on the day of completion. Your solicitors will transfer the purchase money to the owner’s lawyers, and shortly after the monies have arrived, you will be invited to receive the keys from the selling Agents and move into your new home. Usually this occurs early afternoon.
We were going to get a OIP from Aldermore this week so we can work out what to offer on a property we like as otherwise we only have online calculators to go by (which aren't taking into account credit checks etc). Do Aldermore recommend any Bethnal Green solicitors on the Aldermore conveyancing panel, or is it better to find our own lawyer?
You will need to appoint Bethnal Green solicitors independently although you'll need to choose one on the Aldermore conveyancing panel. The solicitor represents both you and Aldermore through the process.
I have been told that property searches are the primary cause of delay in Bethnal Green conveyancing transactions. Is this right?

Searches are not likely to be the root cause of slowing down conveyancing in Bethnal Green.
