Private Client Solicitor / Chartered Legal Executive

Location: Kingsbridge - South Hams - Devon

Hybrid / Flexible Working Full-Time 2+ PQE

A respected regional law firm in the heart of Devon is expanding its Private Client department and is looking to appoint an experienced Solicitor or Chartered Legal Executive. This could be a long term home for anyone seeking high-quality work, long-term progression and a better work-life balance on the South West coast.

Why This Role Stands Out

• Competitive salary based on experience

• 25 days' annual leave + pension

• Parking permit

• Strong admin support and a genuinely collaborative team

• Varied, high-quality Private Client workload

• Clear progression opportunities within a growing department

• Relocation assistance available for those moving to Devon

The Opportunity - Private Client Solicitor / Legal Executive

You'll take ownership of a well-established caseload and deliver clear, practical advice to a loyal and growing client base. Typical matters will include:

• Will drafting and estate planning

• Probate and estate administration

• Inheritance tax advice and lifetime planning

• Lasting Powers of Attorney (LPAs)

• Court of Protection work

• Trust creation and administration (advantageous but not essential)

Much of the work involves HNW clients across the South Hams, though previous experience with HNW estates isn't a requirement.

This is a role suited to someone who enjoys autonomy, consistent client contact and the support of a highly approachable team.

About You

• Qualified Solicitor or Chartered Legal Executive (CILEx)

• At least 2 years' PQE in Private Client work

• Strong communication and client-care skills

• Able to manage your own caseload confidently

• STEP qualification (or interest in obtaining it) is a bonus

• Trainees close to qualification will also be considered
