Job Description

This is a key role for an experienced Private Client Partner—or a senior lawyer ready to take that next step—based in Edinburgh with one of Scotland’s leading top-tier firms.

The position has opened up due to succession planning, offering the chance to step into a pivotal role with a well-established client base and an exceptional team. Whilst your focus would ideally be on tax and trusts work, a skillset within a broader mix of private client matters to is desirable. 

You’ve built your expertise in private client law, you're a recognised name, and now you’re ready to bring your leadership and skills to a thriving practice. You’ll work with an outstanding group of clients—from high-net-worth individuals to family business owners—while shaping the future of the team.

The culture? Collaborative, supportive, and forward-thinking. The path to full equity? Clear and exciting. The opportunity? Exceptional. 

If this sounds like the perfect next step, let’s have a confidential chat. No pressure—just a chance to explore whether this could be the right move for you.
