Family Solicitor | 2 to 5 Years PQE | HNW Boutique | South Manchester
A fantastic opportunity to join one of the North West's most respected family law boutiques, working on complex high net worth family matters in a genuinely supportive and collaborative environment where you are treated as a lawyer, not just a fee earner.
The Firm
Founded over ten years ago by an ex-Tier 1 family partner, this firm has had a genuinely disruptive impact on the family law market across the North of England. What started as a bold and ambitious venture has grown into one of the region's most highly regarded family boutiques, built on a reputation for complex, high quality work and a culture that genuinely invests in its people.
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 firm is tight knit by design. That closeness creates something larger practices simply cannot replicate, namely genuine one-to-one mentorship, direct access to experienced and highly regarded partners and a real say in the direction of the business. Fee earners are actively encouraged to involve themselves in networking, business development and mentoring, creating the opportunity to develop as a well-rounded, commercially aware lawyer rather than simply a biller.
The Role
You will work directly alongside two of the existing partners on a varied and complex caseload of exclusively privately funded family matters, spanning divorces and financial remedy proceedings, children act cases, TOLATA issues and cohabitation disputes for a client base ranging from sports personalities and business owners through to high net worth individuals from across the UK.
Get help with your application
Your very own career expert that helps elevate your application to the next level.
Due to the firm's success in developing its client base over the last five years there is a strong and established caseload to inherit from day one, with genuine scope to develop your own practice alongside it. The partnership actively welcomes fresh ideas and input from the wider team, making this an ideal environment for an ambitious lawyer who wants to contribute to something beyond their individual caseload.
