Job description

Private Client Solicitor (NQ–3 PQE)

Location: Aberdeen

Firm: Leading North East Firm | L500 Ranked Private Client Team

Salary: Generous Salary + Bonus + Excellent Benefits


The Role & The Work

This opportunity offers the chance to step into a forward-thinking Private Client team in Aberdeen that is not only well-established, but continuing to grow and evolve with the changing needs of its clients. With a strong reputation across the North East, the team is known for combining technical excellence with a genuinely personal approach.


You’ll work closely with experienced Private Client practitioners, many of whom are recognised specialists in the region, gaining exposure to a broad and high-quality caseload. Your work will span the full Private Client spectrum, from drafting Wills and Powers of Attorney to advising on trusts, executries and succession planning, often involving complex family and financial dynamics.


As your experience develops, so too will your level of responsibility. You’ll begin to take ownership of your own matters, build lasting relationships with clients and play a more visible role in shaping outcomes that have real, long-term impact.


Collaboration sits at the heart of the team’s approach. You’ll be supported by colleagues who are invested in your progression, with the opportunity to deepen your technical expertise, pursue further qualifications such as STEP and contribute to the continued growth of the practice.


This is an opportunity to build a long-term career within a team that values trust, development and doing high-quality work the right way.


Your Experience

  • Scots Qualified or soon to be qualified Private Client Solicitor (NQ-3 PQE)
  • Experience in Private Client work (executries, Wills, POA, trusts)
  • Strong communication and client-facing skills
  • Excellent attention to detail and organisational ability
  • Interest in developing technical expertise and progressing your career
  • A collaborative, proactive and professional approach


Why This Role?

  • Join an L500 ranked Private Client team with a strong reputation in the North East market
  • Work alongside recognised names in the Aberdeenshire market
  • Exposure to a broad range of high-quality private client work
  • Supportive, friendly and collaborative team culture
  • Structured training and development, including STEP qualification support
  • Opportunity to build long-term client relationships
  • Flexible working and strong work-life balance
  • Generous salary, bonus and comprehensive benefits package
