Wimbledon
Senior Solicitor / Partner – Private Client (8+ PQE) Location: Wimbledon I’m representing a well-established, forward-thinking firm that is looking to appoint an experienced Senior Solicitor or Partner-level Private Client specialist. This is a key strategic hire, ideal for someone with at least eight years’ PQE who is ready to take ownership of a growing practice and play an instrumental role in strengthening its presence in Wimbledon and the surrounding areas. The role suits a lawyer who is not only technically strong but commercially aware — someone who enjoys client engagement, business development and shaping the direction of a team. You’ll be working closely with colleagues across multiple departments, and there is a clear expectation of cross-referring work and building internal relationships that support long-term departmental growth. Core Work & Responsibilities The successful candidate will handle a broad range of private client matters, including: • Drafting Wills, • Estate administration, including cross-border estates, • Trusts Ideal Profile Candidates who thrive in this environment typically demonstrate: • Strong commercial awareness and precise drafting abilities, • Excellent communication, analytical and organisational skills, • The capacity to mentor junior team members while collaborating effectively with senior colleagues, • Confidence in managing deadlines, targets and client protocols without compromising quality Why This Opportunity Stands Out The firm offers a highly competitive salary, generous benefits and, importantly, a well-defined career development framework. They are recognised for their investment in people and ensure every senior lawyer has a clear path for progression, consistent feedback, and access to tailored technical training. Advancement is based on contribution and impact rather than years served, which creates genuine long-term potential for those with ambition. If you’re a seasoned private client specialist seeking a leadership-oriented position with the autonomy to shape a regional presence, this role offers a compelling next step.
