Bath, Bath and North East Somerset, United Kingdom Stone King Full time

About Us

Stone King is a dynamic and welcoming firm dedicated to the Private Client, Business & Social Enterprise, Charity, Education, and Faith sectors. Our collaborative culture and core values are deeply integrated with our commitment to serving our clients, communities, and our team. Our enthusiasm for the sectors we engage with and the meaningful work we undertake has positioned Stone King as a recognized leader in our specialized fields nationwide.

The Opportunity

In light of our success in the niche area of international succession and probate, we are seeking a Partner to spearhead Stone King's International & Cross-Border ('ICB') team.

The ideal candidate will be driven and possess experience in leading and managing teams, along with a background in cross-border planning and probate. While experience in a specialized cross-border environment is preferred, we are open to candidates without this background, as training will be provided. Strong business development skills are essential.

The successful candidate will be a proactive individual who will guide and mentor the team on cross-border planning, succession, tax, and probate matters. This role offers the chance to become a specialist within a team focused exclusively on cross-border work, advising on private international law (conflicts of law) across various jurisdictions worldwide.

Reasons to Consider This Role

  • Advance your career by mastering the Stone King ICB system and leading a highly regarded team while contributing to its ongoing success and growth.
  • Join an ambitious, collaborative, and friendly national firm where our culture and values are central to our operations. We believe our people are our greatest asset and strive to create an exceptional workplace.
  • Enjoy excellent benefits that prioritize wellbeing and professional development.
  • Benefit from hybrid working arrangements - Stone King is proud to support mental health and wellbeing through our commitment to flexible working options.

Key Responsibilities

Your primary duties will encompass all management, leadership, and fee-earning functions, including business development with both external and internal focuses.

Further detailed responsibilities will be discussed during the interview process.

Requirements

  • The ideal candidate will have substantial experience as a solicitor within a specialized cross-border team; however, candidates with extensive trusts and estates experience and some exposure to cross-border matters are also encouraged to apply. Training in cross-border matters and the Stone King ICB systems will be provided.
  • Experience in supervising and developing team members is essential.
  • Demonstrated experience in proactive business development and marketing, with the ability to generate new revenue streams and promote the firm while cross-selling other specialties internally and externally.
  • Candidates should be well-organized, technically skilled, and exhibit leadership qualities.

Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion at Stone King

At Stone King, we embrace individual differences and strive to foster an environment where everyone feels supported and empowered to be themselves. Our partner-led Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion Strategy Group, along with a dedicated DE&I Adviser, is committed to creating an inclusive workplace that nurtures the growth and development of all our team members. We welcome applications from candidates of all backgrounds and identities.

As part of our commitment to an inclusive work environment, we are proud to participate in various initiatives aimed at promoting fairness and inclusivity.
