Location: Weston-super-Mare | Hybrid | Flexible Working
Salary: Up to £75,000 + Bonus
What if your next move could offer more than just a new caseload?
I'm working with a well-regarded, growing law firm in North Somerset that's looking to expand its Family team. With a strong local reputation, a down-to-earth culture and an ambitious attitude for growth, it's an opportunity to join a firm where you can build your career, have a voice and make a real contribution.
A Team Where You Can Make Your Mark:
You'll work closely with an experienced Family Partner who brings nearly two decades of legal experience, including extensive work in family proceedings and children law. Having returned to the firm to lead the department, they're now focused on developing the team and building on its existing strengths.
The wider team includes two dedicated family paralegals, creating a close-knit setup where you'll have direct access to senior support without being buried beneath layers of management. You'll have the opportunity to learn, collaborate and take ownership of your own work.
Quality Work, With Room to Grow:
You'll handle a varied private family caseload:
Divorce and separation
Financial remedy
Private children matters
Cohabitation disputes
Pre- and post-nuptial agreements
Domestic abuse and injunction applications.
What really sets this opportunity apart is the scope to help shape a growing department. The firm places value on individual ability and contribution, rather than treating PQE as the only measure of potential.
Newly qualified? You'll benefit from working closely with an experienced Partner who can support your development. More experienced? There's room to take on greater responsibility, contribute to the team's growth and progress your career without feeling you have to wait in line for the next opportunity.
What's on Offer?
Up to £75,000 salary, plus bonus
Hybrid and flexible working
25 days' holiday plus bank holidays
Birthday leave
Long-service awards, with a choice of cash bonus or additional leave
Company pension
Supportive and inclusive culture
Discounted legal services for you and close relatives
Company events and dog-friendly offices
Support with training and career development
Progression opportunities
The firm combines the personal, client-focused approach of an established local practice with a modern outlook and a real commitment to developing its people.
If you're looking for a Family role where you can do interesting work, learn from an experienced leader and have scope to progress, I would love to tell you more. Get in touch for a confidential, no-pressure chat or apply directly!
