Private Client Partner
- Step away from the traditional partnership model
- Lead and grow a high-quality private client offering
- Enjoy flexibility, collaboration, and autonomy without compromise
Are you a Private Client leader ready for something different?
This is a rare opportunity to join a national firm that’s turned its back on old-school legal hierarchy and embraced a fresh, forward-thinking approach. With no internal competition, no politics, and no partnership red tape, this firm puts business-minded lawyers at the heart of its success and rewards them accordingly.
They’re looking for a Private Client Partner (or ambitious Senior Associate/Legal Director) to take ownership of their Leeds presence and drive the next phase of growth. You’ll have the autonomy and backing to build something sustainable, with support from a successful team across Yorkshire and the wider UK.
Who we’re looking for
- A Private Client specialist with experience in complex, HNW matters
- Someone who is already building their reputation and network in the region
- You’ll ideally have a modest following, solid contacts, or at least a clear plan to generate work
- You’re comfortable using tech and don’t need a dedicated secretary, you’ll have modern tools and team support instead
- You’re commercial, collaborative, and excited by the opportunity to build your own success
The opportunity
- Take the lead on developing the firm’s private client presence in Leeds and West Yorkshire
- Collaborate with a friendly, successful team already thriving in Leeds
- Join a firm where you’ll be treated like an adult, with genuine flexibility around when and how you work
- Be part of something bigger, a national team with a local feel, and no partner politics
