Opportunity: Private Client Solicitor - 3+ PQE

Salary: Competitive up to £80,000 + Bonus

Location: Bath (Hybrid and Flexible Working)

• Lasting Powers of Attorney (LPAs)
• Court of Protection work

You'll manage your own caseload, build strong client relationships and work collaboratively with experienced colleagues. This role offers a fantastic blend of autonomy, support and opportunity - plus room to shape your career rather than ticking a box on PQE.

• Impact‑Led Progression: value based on what you deliver, not just how many years you've been qualified.
• Supportive Team Environment: approachable colleagues, shared expertise and encouragement to grow.

…and a firm-wide culture that truly encourages collaboration, wellbeing and long‑term careers.

Who We Are Looking For:

• Qualified Solicitor (ideally, 3+ PQE in Private Client but candidates with less experience are welcome to apply)
• Strong technical ability with a passion for delivering excellent client service
• Someone who works well both independently and within a supportive team
• A proactive problem‑solver with clear communication skills
