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
