Job description

Our client, a well-established legal practice in the North Highlands, is seeking a Property Solicitor to join their experienced and supportive team in Wick. The firm manages a wide range of property transactions, including residential, commercial, and rural matters, offering a varied and rewarding role.

The successful candidate will be responsible for providing legal advice, drafting, and reviewing documentation, conducting due diligence, and liaising with clients and third parties to ensure the smooth progression of transactions. The role is ideal for someone newly qualified with experience in property law, though applications are welcomed from those at all stages of their careers, including trainees looking to assign their training contract or more senior solicitors seeking a consultant-level position.

Strong communication skills, attention to detail, and the ability to manage a busy caseload are essential. While experience in rural or crofting law would be beneficial, it is not a requirement.

This is an excellent opportunity for someone looking to enjoy a better quality of life in a peaceful, scenic location. With no commuting, a relaxed lifestyle, and a friendly office environment, the role is particularly suited to candidates from Wick or those looking to relocate to the area. The firm offers a competitive salary, flexible working arrangements, and genuine opportunities for career development within a close-knit and well-regarded team. This is a full-time opportunity based in the Wick office; however, the firm would consider some hybrid or remote working for the right candidate, including someone Edinburgh-based who can travel to Wick occasionally.
