About us:
It's inevitable that all of us are going to deal with death at some time in our lives. It’s a fundamental, tragic part of what it is to be human. But the services that should be supporting us haven’t changed in decades. From writing your will to planning a funeral or organising probate, the way we deal with death can be complicated and expensive. Instead of feeling supported, people feel lost.
But it doesn’t need to be this way. We started Farewill to make the experience warmer, brighter, and friendlier. Now we’re the UK’s top rated probate provider, and help our customers pledge over £300 million a year to charities through gifts left in their wills.
We’ve also joined the Dignity Group - one of the major providers of funeral services in the UK. Together, we’re on a mission to change the way the world deals with death. It’s no small task - and we’re looking for a Probate Solicitor to help us do it.
The Role:
We're looking for an ambitious Sales Executive to help us deliver an exceptional Probate service to our customers. Probate is a daunting task that we strive to make simpler, faster and more affordable than traditional providers. Part of how we do that is through building a fantastic team of people who are legally savvy, commercially minded and motivated by compassionately helping people through those difficult challenges.
