Are you a Private Client Solicitor in Edinburgh with around two to five years’ PQE and feeling like it might be time for a change? Maybe you’ve been with your firm since qualification and you’re starting to wonder what else is out there, or perhaps you’re simply ready for a fresh challenge in a new environment.

QED Legal is working with one of Scotland’s leading private client practices to find the next addition to their highly respected team. This is a firm with a big reputation but a very human approach, and you’ll be joining a group led by a partner who is both well-regarded and genuinely supportive. You won’t just be another cog in the wheel – you’ll be trusted to run your own caseload and to develop your skills with proper backing.

The work is broad and engaging. You’ll get stuck into everything from wills, trusts and executries through to powers of attorney and guardianships, with a good dose of tax and accounts work to keep things interesting. And this is very much a front-facing role – you’ll be out there meeting clients, building relationships, and being the person they rely on. If you’re looking for a back-office job where you never leave your desk, this isn’t it.

We’re looking for someone who is commercially sharp, confident working to financial targets, and able to put clients at ease with clear, straightforward advice. If you like getting out there, building relationships, and having a hand in business development, then you’ll fit right in.

In return, you’ll find yourself with a competitive salary, solid benefits, and – most importantly – a clear path to progress your career in a team where your contribution actually counts. If you’ve been waiting for the right opportunity in Edinburgh’s private client market, this could well be it.
