Administrator

About the Role

This is a hands-on and varied role supporting the full estate planning client journey, from initial client instructions and drafting through to completion and ongoing administration.

A significant part of the role will involve preparing and drafting estate planning documentation, including Wills, Lasting Powers of Attorney and Trusts, alongside managing client files, handling amendments, communicating with clients, and liaising with external organisations.

You'll work closely with our advisers and operations team to make sure client matters progress accurately and efficiently from instruction through to completion.

We operate in a CRM-led environment, so you'll need to be highly organised, comfortable working digitally, and confident managing multiple client matters at different stages.

This is not a graduate or entry-level position. We're looking for someone who already has experience working within a professional office environment and understands the importance of organisation, accuracy, communication, and taking ownership of their workload.

This is also not a route to qualification as a solicitor. If your primary career goal is to complete a training contract, SQE qualifying work experience, or progress towards becoming a qualified solicitor, this role is unlikely to be the right fit. We're looking for someone who wants to build a long-term career within estate planning and administration.
