Job description

Base pay range: Probate Solicitor £32,000-£65,000 dependant on experience (Work level 6A and Work level 5). Full time, 37.5 hours or part-time hours available. We work in a hybrid way, with colleagues dividing their time between home and any of our offices in Manchester, Sheffield, Bristol, or Stratford upon Avon.

We’re looking for solicitors/fee earners to join our specialist probate team within Co‑op Legal Services at a variety of levels.

At Co‑op Legal Services we do things differently – we’re future‑focused, committed to providing an exceptional client experience, and passionate about developing our colleagues.

In this role, you’ll manage a varied caseload of probate cases from start to finish, with a client‑focused approach to targets. You won’t need to bring a following of clients with you as we will source new work for you. You’ll also be supported by our innovative legal technology – we’ve introduced AI‑enabled processes into our legal technology platform, and plan to have our estate administration processes fully AI‑enabled through 2025.

What you’ll do

  • Own a caseload of probate cases varying in complexity end‑to‑end, using a case‑management system and artificial‑intelligence tools
  • Use our case‑management system to ensure information is recorded accurately
  • Engage with clients mainly by telephone and email
  • Work collaboratively with expert support from the team to continually develop your legal skills; administrative support will also be provided
  • Use your legal knowledge to mentor more junior members of the team

This role would suit people who have

  • Qualified as a solicitor or legal executive in private practice (CILEX or STEP qualification), or have the equivalent experience in probate law
  • The ability to use your initiative and effectively prioritise and organise your work in a fast‑paced and high‑volume environment
  • A client‑focused approach with the ability to build positive relationships in a remote setting

Why Co‑op?

  • Annual bonus scheme (dependent on personal and business performance)
  • Pension with up to 10% employer contributions
  • 28 days holiday plus bank holidays (rising to 32 in line with service)
  • Private healthcare (WL5 only)
  • Wellbeing benefits to support your physical, financial and mental health
  • Coaching, training and support such as study leave to help you develop your skills and progress your career
  • Discounts on Co‑op products and services

Building an inclusive work environment

We’re building diverse and inclusive teams that reflect the communities we serve. We welcome applications from everyone and are committed to creating a workplace where colleagues can feel like they belong, supported by our inclusive policies and the ways we work.

We’re proud to be part of the Disability Confident scheme and offer interviews to disabled candidates who meet the minimum criteria for a job. If you need any adjustments during the recruitment process, we’ll support you.
