Job Description
Are you an ambitious Family Solicitor ready to take the leap to Partner?
We're working exclusively with a well-respected, boutique family law firm in Devon, seeking an experienced Family Solicitor to join as Partner Designate, ahead of the current Managing Partner's planned retirement.
This is a genuinely rare opportunity. Over the first 12 months, you'll combine fee earning as a Family Solicitor with hands-on exposure to the leadership and management of the firm, working directly alongside the Managing Partner as they prepare to hand over the reins. Rather than the usual lengthy climb to Partnership, this role offers a direct, structured route to Equity Partner status.
About the Firm
Well-established and respected within the local Devon market
A strong, steady caseload with an abundance of case files
Profitable, financially stable, with long-standing, loyal staff
A genuine succession opportunity as the Managing Partner looks to retire About You
Qualified Family Solicitor with 6+ years PQE
Ambitious, with genuine aspirations to reach Partner level
Confident running your own caseload with strong technical and client-facing skills
Ready to take on leadership responsibility and grow into a firm-wide role If you're looking for more than just another senior fee-earning role, and want a genuine, structured path to Partnership, we'd love to hear from you
