• Hybrid working – up to two days from home

An outstanding opportunity awaits an experienced Private Client Solicitor or Legal Executive to join an esteemed firm in the heart of Shrewsbury.

In exchange, this role comes with a competitive salary, as well as the chance to work from home up to two days a week after your probation period.

You’ll be tasked with managing a broad caseload, encompassing areas such as wills, probate, estate planning and administration, along with trusts. With a blend of local and complex client work on offer, you’ll also have the flexibility to specialise in areas you have a particular interest in. This role provides the ideal platform to utilise your experience, grow within an intimate team, and contribute significantly to a respected firm’s success.

To succeed in this role, you should be capable and confident in managing your own caseload, with a minimum of 2 PQE. Familiarity with trust work will be a significant advantage, however, being able to offer an end-to-end private client service is paramount. You’re a friendly, self-sufficient team player with a clear ambition to grow, contributing towards an inclusive and engaging culture.

This well-established firm is known for providing a wide range of good quality legal services. Their culture values personality, ambition, and encourages staff to grow and develop.

Are you a dedicated and ambitious private client professional, seeking a balance between challenging work and an appealing lifestyle? If so, this opportunity offers the ideal combination of professional growth, work-life balance and a friendly, welcoming team.
