You’ll handle a quality, HNW-leaning private client caseload within a team known for clear communication, meticulous standards, and long-term client relationships.

Why this firm appeals

  • Reputation that opens doors: Strong regional brand with steady referrals from wealth advisers, agents, and repeat clients — ensuring consistent, interesting instructions rather than volume churn.

  • People-first culture:Collaborative team, approachable leadership, and modern systems that remove admin friction so you can focus on client work.

  • Career you can shape: Transparent progression routes (Senior Associate, Team Lead), mentoring and funding for STEP, and active support for business development so your profile grows with the firm.

  • Lasting Powers of Attorney and capacity-related advice

  • IHT/CGT-aware structuring and asset protection in partnership with tax and financial advisers

  • Client stewardship: clear, empathetic guidance, proactive updates, and meticulous file management

About You
  • 1+ year PQE (more experienced candidates welcomed; work will be weighted to your level)

  • Confident running your own caseload with excellent drafting and client-care

  • Comfortable engaging with HNW clients and professional referrers

  • STEP qualified or working towards STEP (desirable; support provided)

  • Commercially aware, organised, and committed to best-in-class service

Package & Benefits
  • £55,000 to £80,000 (aligned to PQE, complexity, and BD profile)
