Opportunity: Private Client Solicitor
Location: North Somerset (Hybrid and Flexible Working)
Salary: Up to £65,000 + Bonus
If you're a Private Client Solicitor looking for something that genuinely fits around your life, not the other way round, this is worth a conversation.
We're working with a long-standing, well-regarded firm with deep roots in its local community and a loyal, established client base. This isn't a volume-driven environment. It's about quality work, trusted relationships, and having the time and autonomy to do things properly.
What Makes This Role Different
What makes this role different is its flexibility - not just in working patterns but in how the role itself is shaped.
The Opportunity
This is not a "one size fits all" hire.
Whether you:
- Want to focus purely on fee-earning and enjoy high-quality private client work, or
- Are looking to step up, influence direction, and grow a team around you
…the firm is open to building the role around you.
You'll work alongside an experienced and supportive Partner who is genuinely collaborative - someone you can learn from, bounce ideas off, and develop with. There's no rigid hierarchy or corporate red tape here - just a team that values trust, autonomy, and doing right by their clients.
Reasons to use Rodeo
Start with a chat, not a search bar
Grad scheme, placement, apprenticeship? Not sure what you want yet — that's fine. Your agent talks it through with you and turns "I have no idea" into a shortlist.
It searches the market for you
Every day your agent scans the market matching roles against what actually matters to you, not just keywords on a CV.
Only hits
No noise. No "maybe this fits." Just roles with a clear explanation of why they're right — and where to focus when applying.
The Work
A broad and high-quality private client caseload, including:
- Wills & estate planning
- Probate & estate administration
- Lasting Powers of Attorney
- Trusts
The client base is long-standing and relationship-driven, meaning you'll be working with people who value continuity, trust, and personal service.
What Is on Offer
- Hybrid working and flexible working arrangements
- Enhanced pension
- Great bonus structure
- Free parking
- A genuinely supportive, down-to-earth culture
Why This Role?
This will suit someone who either:
- Enjoys the feel of a smaller, traditional firm where you're known, valued, and trusted, or
- Sees the potential to shape and grow something, without the pressure or politics of a larger practice
Progression here isn't dictated by rigid structures - it's defined by you. Whether that's technical development, leadership, or simply maintaining a high-quality caseload with balance.
