3+ PQE | £45,000–£60,000 | Agricultural & Rural Property | Grassington

Truly broad Private Client caseloads are hard to find, particularly more interesting clients and the opportunities to develop specialisms in rural and agricultural work. But if that sounds like what you’re looking for, I’ve got just the ticket.

QED Legal's client is looking to appoint a Private Client Solicitor to its established practice in Grassington. This is a varied role combining traditional Private Client work with exposure to the issues affecting farming families, landowners and landed estates.

You'll manage your own caseload covering Wills, LPAs, probate, estate administration, inheritance tax and succession planning. There's also scope to become involved in more specialist work around agricultural property, landed estates, common and sporting rights, and disputes involving rural land and estates.

The client base is a real feature of the role. You'll build long-term relationships with individuals, farming families and landowners, often advising across generations. You'll also work alongside colleagues in established agricultural and property teams, giving you access to a wider range of rural and commercial matters.

Ideally, you'll have at least three years' PQE and be confident managing a varied Private Client caseload independently. Experience of complex estates, trusts, tax or succession planning would be useful. An existing interest in agricultural and rural work is welcome, but there's scope to develop that knowledge further.

This would suit someone looking beyond a routine Wills and probate caseload, who enjoys working closely with clients and wants to develop their practice within an established rural firm.
