Family Solicitor
- 2-5 PQE
- Exceptional homeworking policy – work from home four days per week
- Clear progression route to associate, senior associate and director
- Very achievable billing targets
- High quality private work
A down-to-earth regional firm is looking to bring a Family Solicitor with 2-5 PQE into its high-performing team in York.
The opportunity comes with a generous homeworking policy of four days per week, which will help you achieve a fantastic work/life balance and the chance to avoid a long commute. This makes this role easily commutable from York, Harrogate, Leeds, Sheffield, Hull and the surrounding areas.
The role comes with a transparent progression route all the way up to director level and the firm has a proven track record of promoting from within.
You’ll manage a caseload of entirely private cases, so this would suit a solicitor with an existing caseload of private matters or someone with private family experience looking to drop legal aid work.
You’ll join a team consisting of three partners, a solicitor, a legal executive, four paralegals/trainees and two legal secretaries, so you’ll get lots of support.
The management team at this growing firm is highly experienced yet down-to-earth, and there is a real feeling of care and interest in the success and happiness of its team members. For those looking for genuine progression, interesting work and a human culture, there aren’t many better places to continue to develop a successful career in family law.
