  • Good IT and case management skills
  • Commercial awareness and a proactive approach
  • Team player who enjoys collaborating with colleagues
  • STEP qualification (Desired)
  • 4+ PQE


What you’ll be doing

  • Managing a varied Private Client caseload from instruction through to completion
  • Advising clients on wills, probate, LPAs and estate administration matters
  • Delivering excellent client care and maintaining strong relationships
  • Meeting billing and compliance requirements
  • Supporting junior colleagues where appropriate
  • Getting involved in business development and networking activities
  • Contributing to the continued growth of the team
