Job Description
Overview

If you're a senior Private Client solicitor thinking about a new challenge, this role at a long-standing North London firm might just hit the mark. They're looking for someone to lead their Private Client department - not just handle files, but help shape the future of the team and play a visible role in the wider firm. It's a great fit for someone who wants real input, real ownership, and the chance to build something that reflects their way of working.

The work itself is broad and interesting - estate and tax planning, trusts, probate, LPAs, Court of Protection, and working alongside a strong disputes team on contentious matters. But what really stands out here is the setup.

You can expect:

  • Hybrid working (2 days from home as standard)
  • A genuinely supportive, people-first culture
  • Competitive salary and well-rounded benefits
  • Performance-based incentives and recognition for client development
  • Clear route to progression, with space to make the role your own
  • Senior leadership that values ideas and trusts you to lead
Responsibilities

Lead from the front in private client work, mentoring junior lawyers, engaging with clients, and contributing to firm strategy. Manage and shape the Private Client department to reflect the firm's goals and client needs.

Requirements

They're after someone upwards of 5 years' PQE, with a solid track record in private client work and the confidence to lead from the front.
