Head of Family

An established, multi-office regional firm is looking to appoint a Head of Family to lead and grow its well-regarded team. This is a genuine leadership opportunity, not just a title.

You'll inherit a profitable and busy department with a solid reputation across divorce, financial remedy, private children matters and associated family work. The mandate is clear: strengthen the team, drive performance, and shape the next phase of growth.

The Opportunity

• Lead and develop a multi-office Family team
• Combine strategic oversight with a high-quality personal caseload
• Play a key role in recruitment, mentoring and succession planning
• Drive business development and cross-referral relationships internally
• Influence operational processes and departmental performance

This role would suit an ambitious Senior Associate, Legal Director or existing Head of Department who wants more autonomy, visibility and influence within a forward-thinking regional platform.

This is not a corporate factory environment, it's a relationship-led, reputation-driven firm where leadership genuinely has impact.
