  • Private Client Solicitor role with a ready-made caseload and high-quality work
  • Replacement role within a well-established, collaborative team
  • Altrincham-based with hybrid working and strong local client relationships

 

This is an excellent opportunity for a Private Client Solicitor to join a long-standing, well-regarded team in Altrincham, stepping into a busy, well-managed caseload with work readily available from day one.

The role has arisen due to a planned departure, so you’ll be taking over an established caseload rather than building from scratch. The team is growing and well supported, but they specifically need a qualified solicitor who can handle matters independently and contribute to the wider team dynamic.

While the role would suit someone around 2–4 PQE, more senior candidates will also be considered, particularly where they can help support and guide junior solicitors within the team.

Who we’re looking for

  • Qualified Private Client Solicitor 2–4 PQE
  • Able to run your own private client caseload independently
  • Broad experience across wills, LPAs and probate
  • Collaborative, client-focused and comfortable in a busy office environment
  • Probate-focused experience considered (Desired)
  • Willingness to support and guide junior solicitors if more experienced (Desired)

What you’ll be doing

  • Managing your own private client caseload
  • Advising on wills, LPAs and probate matters
  • Handling a diverse and interesting range of work
  • Working closely with a friendly, experienced team in a client-facing role

Salary & Benefits

  • Very competitive salary, dependent on experience
  • Full-time or part-time (4 days) considered
  • Hybrid working – typically 1 day from home (office presence required for client appointments)
  • Excellent quality, varied private client work
  • Well-established and respected local practice
  • Social, collaborative team culture
  • Career progression encouraged and merit-based
  • Tech-enabled firm with growing infrastructure
  • Regular 1:1s and hands-on support from senior leadership
  • Strong internal referral network
  • Corporate gym membership
