Private Client Senior Associate Solicitor
- High-calibre caseload including complex estates and HNW clients
- Join a Legal 500 and Chambers-ranked team in growth mode
- Hybrid working, part-time options, and clear progression
A highly respected South Manchester law firm is looking for a Senior Associate Solicitor to join its nationally recognised Private Client team. This is a rare opportunity to step into a senior role within a close-knit, collegiate department and take ownership of high-value, complex matters while playing a key role in supporting more junior colleagues.
With recent team changes and an ever-increasing pipeline of HNW work, the partners are keen to bring in someone experienced who can ease the pressure on the leadership team and hit the ground running. You’ll join a team of seven, including partners, associates, a solicitor apprentice and junior solicitors – all known for their friendly and collaborative working style.
This is the ideal opportunity for a seasoned private client solicitor looking for a senior associate title (or already at that level) who is motivated by high-quality work, autonomy, and being part of a genuinely supportive team.
Who we’re looking for
- Private client solicitor with 6+ PQE, ideally already operating at senior associate level
- Strong experience with a broad range of matters, including wills, probate, trusts and HNW estates
- Able to manage your own caseload of complex matters with minimal supervision
- Confident supporting and supervising more junior team members
Salary & benefits
- £60,000–£70,000 depending on experience
- Part-time (3 or 4 days) or full-time considered
- Hybrid working – typically 2 days WFH, potentially 3 for the right person
- Friendly, supportive team culture
- Interesting, varied caseload with a steady stream of high-quality work
- Clear progression framework for those looking to take the next step in their career
