Are you an experienced Private Client Solicitor looking to join a firm where your expertise is recognised, your career is supported, and you can make a genuine difference to your clients?

Our client, a highly respected Scottish law firm, is continuing to grow its successful Wills, Estates & Succession Planning team and is seeking an ambitious Solicitor or Associate (4+ years' PQE) to join its Edinburgh office.

This is an outstanding opportunity to become part of a collaborative, forward-thinking team that is committed to delivering exceptional client service while providing its lawyers with genuine opportunities for professional development and career progression.

You will advise a diverse client base on a broad range of private client matters, managing your own varied caseload while working alongside experienced colleagues on more complex matters.

You will also have the opportunity to mentor and support junior team members, playing an active role in the continued growth of the team.

Your work will include:

You will possess and demonstrate:

Excellent technical knowledge across private client matters
Outstanding communication and client relationship skills
A proactive and commercially minded approach
The ability to work both independently and collaboratively
Experience supervising or mentoring junior colleagues would be advantageous

A STEP qualification would be welcomed but is by no means essential.

This is more than just another Private Client role. It's an opportunity to join a firm that genuinely values its people and invests in their future.

Hybrid and flexible working
Clear opportunities for career progression
A competitive salary, commensurate with experience
