We welcome applications from candidates seeking a permanent full-time position, a permanent part-time role, or a locum arrangement. A hybrid working arrangement is also available, subject to experience, availability, client requirements, and the needs of the department.

This is an opportunity for an accomplished family lawyer to manage a high-quality, privately funded caseload while taking an active role in supervising the team, developing the department, and supporting the firm’s continued growth.

About MSD Solicitors

MSD Solicitors is an established and expanding law firm based in Manchester City Centre. We provide specialist legal services in Family Law and Immigration Law to clients throughout the UK.

We are committed to delivering clear, strategic, and commercially focused advice while maintaining high standards of client care.

As part of our continued expansion, we are looking for a senior solicitor who combines strong technical expertise with leadership ability, commercial awareness, and a genuine interest in developing a successful family law practice.

The Role

You will independently manage a varied and complex privately funded family law caseload, including divorce, financial remedy proceedings, private children matters, domestic abuse cases, and related disputes.

Alongside your fee-earning responsibilities, you will help supervise junior members of the department, maintain high standards of client service, and contribute to business development and departmental strategy.

The role can be structured on a:

Full-time permanent basis
Part-time permanent basis
Locum or consultancy basis
Hybrid working basis, with an agreed combination of office and remote working

The precise arrangement will be agreed depending on the successful candidate’s experience, availability, and the operational requirements of the department.

Key Responsibilities

Manage a complex privately funded family law caseload from initial instruction through to conclusion
Advise clients on divorce, separation, financial remedies, private children matters, domestic abuse, and associated family law issues
Handle complex and high-value financial disputes, including matters involving businesses, pensions, property portfolios, and significant assets
Draft applications, statements, consent orders, position statements, and other legal documents
Conduct advocacy and represent clients at court hearings where appropriate
Provide clear, practical, and strategic advice to clients
Maintain strong client relationships and deliver consistently high standards of client care
Supervise, mentor, and support junior solicitors, paralegals, and legal support staff
Ensure files are managed in accordance with regulatory, compliance, and internal quality standards
Contribute to business development, networking, referral relationships, and marketing initiatives
Support the continued growth, profitability, and development of the Family Law department

About You

The successful candidate will ideally have:

Qualification as a Solicitor in England and Wales
At least 3 years’ post-qualification experience in Family Law, although applications from candidates with equivalent experience will be considered
Strong experience managing privately funded family law matters independently
Experience handling divorce, financial remedy, and private children proceedings
The ability to manage complex, sensitive, and high-value cases
Strong drafting, negotiation, advocacy, and case management skills
Excellent communication and client care abilities
Experience supervising or mentoring junior staff
A commercial approach to fee earning and departmental development
A proven ability to generate work, build professional relationships, or contribute to business development
The confidence and initiative to help drive the department forward
The ability to work effectively and independently within a hybrid or flexible working structure

What We Offer

Competitive salary or locum rate, depending on experience and working arrangement
Performance-related incentives for permanent appointments
Full-time, part-time, and locum opportunities
Hybrid working options
A high-quality, privately funded caseload
A senior and influential position within a growing department
Opportunities to supervise and develop junior team members
