Job description

This is a private practice with big ambitions. They’ve already seen impressive growth over the last few years and they’re not slowing down — continued development and expansion are very much part of the plan.

What really sets this firm apart is how much they value their people. They regularly check in with their teams to understand what’s working and where things can be better, and they actually act on that feedback. A recent overhaul of their benefits package, with significantly improved offerings, is a great example of this in practice.

Due to their ongoing success, they’re now looking to appoint a Legal Director to join their Private Client team in Dundee. This is a genuinely exciting opportunity to step into a key role where you can make a real impact, working alongside highly experienced colleagues who share your commitment to delivering an exceptional service.

You’ll ideally have around 4+ years’ post-qualifying experience in private client work, including Wills, Powers of Attorney, Executries and Tax Planning.

Client care will be at the heart of everything you do. You’ll be someone who builds strong relationships naturally, gives clear and practical advice, and always aims to provide a smooth, high-quality experience for your clients.

If you’re feeling stuck where you are and know you’re capable of more, this could be the move you’ve been waiting for. Get in touch with me Deborah Collier at QED Legalfor a completely confidential conversation.
