Are you an experienced contentious probate partner looking for a leadership role with complete flexibility and a forward-thinking approach?
This is an opportunity to build and shape a contentious probate practice within a firm that is already established in private client work.

With no secretarial support required due to their highly efficient case management systems, this role is suited to a partner who embraces innovation and enjoys working in a dynamic, agile environment. The firm supports both in-office and fully remote working, making it ideal for those looking for flexibility while still having access to excellent resources and a collaborative team.
Who We're Looking ForWe're seeking a solicitor or legal executive with:
- 8+ years' PQE in contentious probate.
- Experience handling high-value, international, and cross-border probate cases.
- A commercial mindset with a willingness to engage in business development.
- A strong network of contacts and plans to grow a client base.
- Leadership experience, with the ability to manage and mentor a growing team.
- Strong IT and legal tech proficiency—this firm operates without secretarial support.
- Salary up to £100,000, plus bonuses.
- Fully remote or office-based working—your choice.
- 4-day workweek at full salary, offering an industry-leading work-life balance.
- Full autonomy to lead and develop a new contentious probate department.
- Access to cutting-edge legal technology and a collaborative online co-working platform.
- A progressive, dynamic working environment with a strong focus on client care.
- Support with professional development and business growth.
If you're ready to take ownership of a growing practice area in a truly flexible, forward-thinking firm, get in touch with Kelly Reid at kelly.reid@realmrecruit.com or call 03300 245 606 to find out more.
