Full job descriptionI am working with a progressive and well regarded firm that is looking to appoint an experienced Private Client Solicitor to join its friendly and supportive team.

This is an excellent opportunity for a Solicitor with at least one years PQE who is keen to develop their career within Private Client. You’ll work closely with senior Solicitors and manage a broad and interesting caseload covering Wills, Powers of Attorney, Trusts and Executry Administration.

You’ll have responsibility for your own caseload from initial instruction through to the final distribution of an estate. There will also be the opportunity to support and supervise Paralegals and Trainees as your experience develops.

Just as importantly, the firm is looking for someone who is approachable, enthusiastic and enjoys working collaboratively with colleagues and clients.

The position can be offered on either a full-time or part-time basis, with flexibility available to support a positive work/life balance. The firm offers excellent working conditions, support with professional development and genuine opportunities for career progression.
