- Managing and progressing a varied private client caseload
- Working on wills, LPAs, probate and estates, with some exposure to HNW/trusts work
- Delivering excellent client care in a walk-in, community-focused practice
- Contributing to business development naturally through presence and relationships
- Supporting the department as it grows back to a stable four-person team
- Developing your own autonomy and progression within the department
- Helping improve workflow consistency in high-turnover areas
