Job Description
Private Client Solicitor / Chartered Legal Executive
Location: Kingsbridge - South Hams - Devon
Hybrid / Flexible Working | Full-Time | 2+ PQE
A respected regional law firm in the heart of Devon is expanding its Private Client department and is looking to appoint an experienced Solicitor or Chartered Legal Executive. This could be a long term home for anyone seeking high-quality work, long-term progression and a better work-life balance on the South West coast.
Why This Role Stands Out
* Competitive salary based on experience
* 25 days' annual leave + pension
* Parking permit
* Strong admin support and a genuinely collaborative team
* Varied, high-quality Private Client workload
* Clear progression opportunities within a growing department
* Relocation assistance available for those moving to Devon
The Opportunity - Private Client Solicitor / Legal Executive
You'll take ownership of a well-established caseload and deliver clear, practical advice to a loyal and growing client base. Typical matters will include:
* Will drafting and estate planning
* Probate and estate administration
* Inheritance tax advice and lifetime planning
* Lasting Powers of Attorney (LPAs)
* Court of Protection work
* Trust creation and administration (advantageous but not essential)
Much of the work involves HNW clients across the South Hams, though previous experience with HNW estates isn't a requirement.
This is a role suited to someone who enjoys autonomy, consistent client contact and the support of a highly approachable team.
About You
* Qualified Solicitor or Chartered Legal Executive (CILEx)
* At least 2 years' PQE in Private Client work
* Strong communication and client-care skills
* Able to manage your own caseload confidently
* STEP qualification (or interest in obtaining it) is a bonus
* Trainees close to qualification will also be considered
