Position: Private Client Solicitor Working Arrangements: Hybrid Location: Wolverhampton Salary: Flexible

Are you ready to step into a role that offers genuine progression, flexibility, and the chance to shape the future of a respected regional legal practice? This established Wolverhampton-based law firm is seeking a Private Client Solicitor to join their warm, collaborative team - and this could be your next big career move. This is a standout opportunity suitable for solicitors with 3PQE+ who are passionate about private client work and eager to push their career forward in 2025. If you're looking for a role where you'll feel trusted, supported, and genuinely valued, this is the one.

The Role

You'll handle a varied and interesting caseload including:

  • Trusts
  • Probate
  • Estate administration
  • Lasting Powers of Attorney

STEP qualification is preferred but not essential - the firm is happy to support your continued development. What truly sets this role apart is the opportunity to move into a Head of Department position. No previous HOD experience is required - just ambition, confidence, and the desire to take the next step in your legal career. You'll be encouraged and guided as you grow into the role.

What Makes This Firm a Great Place to Build Your Career?

While we're keeping their name under wraps for now, here's what you can expect:

  • A long-established regional practice with a strong, loyal client base
  • A firm known for its genuine work life balance, supportive culture, and down to earth leadership
  • A team that values trust, autonomy, and professional development
  • A practice that invests in its people and is proud of its friendly, non corporate feel

This is a place where you can make a real impact - not just another cog in the machine.

Flexibility & Benefits
  • Hybrid working - choose the pattern that suits you (e.g., 2 days office / 3 days WFH or similar)
  • Flexible salary - competitive and tailored to your experience
  • Support with professional development, including STEP
  • A clear path to leadership and the chance to shape the department long term
  • Supportive environment with no micromanagement
Who We're Looking For
  • A Private Client Solicitor with 3PQE or more
  • Someone with experience in trusts, probate, and LPAs
  • A personable, confident solicitor who enjoys client contact
  • An individual with ambition - whether for immediate progression or future leadership
  • Someone excited about a fresh start and a long term home
Ready to Make 2025 Your Year?

If you're looking for a role that offers progression, flexibility, and the chance to lead (without the pressure of prior management experience), this is an exceptional opportunity.

Apply today and start your New Year with a career move that truly excites you.
