Family Solicitor | 1–2 PQE
Newbury | Hybrid Working | Specialist Family Law Firm
If you're a Family Solicitor looking for a move where you can develop your career, work alongside experienced specialists and have genuine ownership of your caseload, this could be worth a conversation.
We’re working with a well-established specialist Family Law firm that has built an excellent reputation across the South East. The firm has continued to grow its presence outside of London, with its Newbury office now looking to strengthen its Family team.
This is not a role where you'll simply become another fee earner in a large, impersonal department. You'll join a close-knit and established team, with the opportunity to work directly with experienced Family lawyers and develop your own client relationships.
The opportunity
You'll handle your own caseload across a broad range of Family matters, with the support of experienced colleagues around you.
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.
Your work is likely to include:
- Divorce and separation
- Financial remedy
- Private children matters
- Cohabitation and relationship breakdown
- Domestic abuse
- Wider private Family matters
The firm is particularly well suited to someone who wants to build depth in their Family Law experience, rather than being pigeonholed into one narrow area of work.
Why consider the move?
Specialist environment
You'll be joining a firm with a genuine focus on Family Law, surrounded by lawyers who understand the complexities of the work and the clients you're dealing with.
A growing Newbury presence
The office is established but continues to develop, giving you the opportunity to join at a point where there is genuine scope to make your mark.
Quality of work
You'll be working on interesting private Family matters and dealing directly with clients, allowing you to continue building both your technical expertise and your client-facing experience.
Get help with your application
Your very own career expert that helps elevate your application to the next level.
Supportive team culture
You'll have experienced Family lawyers around you, without the feel of being lost within a huge team.
Long-term progression
This is an opportunity for someone who wants to develop with the firm rather than simply take their next job. As the Newbury team continues to grow, there is scope for your role and responsibilities to grow with it.
If you're based in Newbury, West Berkshire or the surrounding areas, this could be a particularly good opportunity to join a specialist firm without needing to commute into London.
