Senior Solicitor / Partner - Private Client (8+ PQE)
Location: Wimbledon

I'm representing a well-established, forward-thinking firm that is looking to appoint an experienced Senior Solicitor or Partner-level Private Client specialist. This is a key strategic hire, ideal for someone with at least eight years' PQE who is ready to take ownership of a growing practice and play an instrumental role in strengthening its presence in Wimbledon and the surrounding areas.

The role suits a lawyer who is not only technically strong but commercially aware - someone who enjoys client engagement, business development and shaping the direction of a team. You'll be working closely with colleagues across multiple departments, and there is a clear expectation of cross-referring work and building internal relationships that support long-term departmental growth.

• Drafting Wills
• Estate administration, including cross-border estates
• Trusts
• Lasting powers of attorney
• Experience managing high-value estates would be particularly valuable.

You’ll also have the support of dedicated administrative and paralegal resources, allowing you to focus on higher-level advisory work, client relationships and strategic development.

• Strong commercial awareness and precise drafting abilities
• Excellent communication, analytical and organisational skills
• The capacity to mentor junior team members while collaborating effectively with senior colleagues
• Confidence in managing deadlines, targets and client protocols without compromising quality
• A proactive mindset when it comes to networking and business development
• A STEP qualification is beneficial but not essential.

The firm offers a highly competitive salary, generous benefits and, importantly, a well-defined career development framework. They are recognised for their investment in people and ensure every senior lawyer has a clear path for progression, consistent feedback, and access to tailored technical training. Advancement is based on contribution and impact rather than years served, which creates genuine long-term potential for those with ambition.

If you're a seasoned private client specialist seeking a leadership-oriented position with the autonomy to shape a regional presence, this role offers a compelling next step.
