Private Client Solicitor / CILEX – Wills & Probate
Location: London & Home Counties
Experience: 2–4 years’ PQE preferred
Sector: Private Client / Wills & Probate
I’m working with a growing Private Client team that is looking to add a talented Wills & Probate professional to its expanding division.
This is a great opportunity for someone looking to join a supportive, growing team where there is genuine scope to develop their career and take on increasing responsibility.
The ideal candidate
We’re ideally looking for someone with 2–4 years’ PQE, although we’re also happy to consider candidates who have strong paralegal experience before qualifying or who are CILEX qualified.
Reasons to use Rodeo
I’m in my final year doing Economics and I don’t know whether to apply for grad schemes now or do a masters first. What do you think?
Honest answer — it depends on where you want to end up. A lot of top grad schemes (Big 4, civil service, banking) don’t need a masters. Let’s look at the ones you’d be competitive for now, and we can decide if a masters actually adds anything.
Also worth knowing: most autumn 2026 applications are open now. Timing matters more than you think.
Start with a chat, not a search bar
Grad scheme, placement, apprenticeship? Not sure what you want yet — that's fine. Your agent talks it through with you and turns "I have no idea" into a shortlist.

Experience fit
Your summer at the bank plus your econometrics coursework map directly to the day-one responsibilities on this scheme — client modelling, market briefings, and deal support.
Only hits
No noise. No "maybe this fits." Just roles with a clear explanation of why they're right — and where to focus when applying.
You’ll ideally have experience in:
- Managing your own caseload, taking client instructions and liaising with beneficiaries, HMRC and professional referrers
- Drafting Wills, including those incorporating trusts
- Preparing Lasting Powers of Attorney
- Probate and estate administration
- Preparing and submitting IHT400 inheritance tax accounts
- Understanding inheritance tax rules and completing inheritance tax calculations
- Trust administration would be advantageous, although not essential
- Holding, or being willing to work towards, the STEP Diploma in Trusts and Estates
