A well-established multi office regional law firm is looking to recruit a Private Client Solicitor to join its growing North Wales team in Conwy. This is an opportunity to join a respected private client department with strong local roots, a varied caseload, and a supportive working environment with clear long-term progression prospects.

The wider firm offers a modern working environment and places a strong emphasis on developing long-term careers rather than short-term fee generation.

- Managing a varied caseload with support from an established wider team
- Working closely with longstanding local clients and professional referrers
