An established, multi-office regional firm is looking to appoint a Head of Family to lead and grow its well-regarded team. This is a genuine leadership opportunity, not just a title.
You’ll inherit a profitable and busy department with a solid reputation across divorce, financial remedy, private children matters and associated family work. The mandate is clear: strengthen the team, drive performance, and shape the next phase of growth.
The Opportunity
* Lead and develop a multi-office Family team
* Combine strategic oversight with a high-quality personal caseload
* Play a key role in recruitment, mentoring and succession planning
* Drive business development and cross-referral relationships internally
* Influence operational processes and departmental performance
This role would suit an ambitious Senior Associate, Legal Director or existing Head of Department who wants more autonomy, visibility and influence within a forward-thinking regional platform.
This is not a corporate factory environment, it’s a relationship-led, reputation-driven firm where leadership genuinely has impact.
What We’re Looking For
* Experienced Family Solicitor or Chartered Legal Executive
* Strong technical background across private family matters
* Confident leader who can motivate and develop others
* Commercially aware with a track record of client development
What’s On Offer
* Competitive senior-level salary (DOE)
* Leadership status with strategic input
* Flexible working arrangements
* Benefits package aligned to senior hires
If you’re currently leading a team but feel constrained, or you’re ready to step up into a genuine departmental leadership role this is worth a confidential conversation.
