We’re delighted to represent our client, a highly respected law firm making impressive inroads in the Midlands, who are seeking a Private Client Senior Associate to join their flourishing private client division based in Worcester. Building on a solid reputation and expansive regional presence, this is a fantastic opportunity to join an enthusiastic team during a time of growth and expansion.
Our client values work-life balance and engagement, tailoring your work hours to maximise productivity without compromising personal time. They offer a competitive salary of around £55,000, in addition to a range of benefits such as healthcare provisions, contributory pension schemes, and an attractive annual bonus offering.
As a Private Client Senior Associate, you’ll manage a varied and complex caseload involving LPAs, wills, estate administration, creation of trusts, and tax planning matters. You’ll also play a crucial role in leading the team, sharing best practices, and supporting the professional development of others. This is a unique chance to shape the future of the private client division and grow alongside it.
We’re seeking candidates who are technically proficient, commercially aware, and possess a solid sense of judgement. You should ideally come from a Legal 500 background, although promising candidates from a high street background will also be considered. Preferably equipped with around 6-7 years of post-qualification experience, the ideal candidate would be an enthusiastic, confident individual capable of handling complex private client matters.
In return for your expertise, you can expect excellent secretarial support, a clear progression pathway, generous holiday package, tier 3 Legal 500 work quality and fantastic work-life balance. You’ll also have the chance to work from home two days a week after your probation period.
If you are looking to advance your career in a dynamic environment that values engagement and work-life balance, we urge you to apply for this role.
