Job description

Succession Planning - Great Quality Work - 3 + PQE (No Maximum)

A rare opportunity at a highly regarded boutique law firm. They have a close-knit team of 8 exceptional lawyers, all with outstanding Legal 500 pedigrees. This is a chance for an ambitious Property Solicitor to join a practice where you can truly make an impact – and progress into a leadership role.

This is not just another solicitor role. It’s an opportunity to buy into the firm’s vision, take on high-quality work, and benefit from genuine succession planning with the potential for salaried partnership from day one.

Why This Role?

• Succession Planning in Place – potential to step into management responsibilities in the near future.
• Quality of Work – a diverse caseload ranging from blue-chip clients to SMEs and local businesses.
• Work-Life Balance – perfect for someone who has worked at a top city firm but no longer wants the daily commute.
• Leadership Mentorship – work closely with the managing partner, gaining hands‑on experience and strategic insight.

Key Responsibilities

• Handling a broad mix of property work (commercial and residential).
• Taking on management and leadership responsibilities as the role develops.

What We’re Looking For

• A qualified Property Solicitor with strong experience (3+ PQE – No maximum).
• A background with a top or highly regarded firm.
• Ambition to progress quickly in a smaller firm.
• A client following is desirable – six-figure salary packages will be considered for high billers.
• Commercially minded, approachable, and keen to be part of a collaborative team.

Rewards & Benefits

• Competitive salary tailored to experience – six figures available for strong billers with a following.
• Salaried Partnership considered from the outset.
• Opportunity to inherit an existing client base immediately (handover in place for quick starters).
• Long-term career security through succession planning.
• A supportive, close-knit Legal 500-calibre team.
