Legal jobs Wales

The legal market in Wales is heavily dominated by Cardiff as the capital and cultural hub of the country. There is a strong local firm presence in the region as you’d expect, but a good selection of the UK’s largest law firms also boast an office there too. This means there is a good selection of sought-after legal jobs in Wales to apply for. Whether you are Welsh legal professional looking for your next step on the ladder or seeking a return to the country having forged your legal career in London or elsewhere in the UK, then our team can help.

There are substantial lifestyle benefits to choosing the likes of Cardiff over London, including house prices, more free time and shorter commutes. Despite this, there is still the chance of good career progression if securing a role in the right firm. Speak to our regional specialist recruiters who can guide you through the lesser-known intricacies of what it is like to live and work in the country, as well as pair you with the perfect opportunity at the ideal firm when it arises.

Testimonials

City Law Firm

“I have been impressed with the degree of personal service received by Origin Legal. Their approach seems to be to not bother clients unless they have someone suitable or a valid and relevant question to ask, which is appreciated, particularly in the current climate. The consultants are also honest, professional and friendly.”

Professional Liability & Commercial Litigation

“They are very different from the usual agency style recruiters and as such have access to a wide range of different jobs across the City. I briefed them on what I wanted and I found consultants who provided a totally personalized service. They were the only consultants to find me a job in Aviation. I had such an unexpectedly brilliant service from them that I thought you might like to know”

Private Client

“I have worked with Origin for a couple of years now. I have always appreciated their friendly approach, openness and honesty. I know I will get solid advice that I can trust and that there is no hidden agenda. They really make an effort to connect with their clients and to get to know them. And when you genuinely get on, it is that much easier to work together.”

Featured Vacancies

The successful Commercial Litigation Solicitor will join an award winning, Top 200 UK law firm delivering the highest quality legal service to business and an expanding client base.
