Department: Lifetime Planning

Who are we?
At Redkite Solicitors, we’ve been advising individuals, families and businesses for over a century, but we are firmly focused on what comes next. As one of the fastest-growing full-service law firms in Wales and the South-West, we are continuing to evolve our Private Client offering with ambitious growth plans, modern leadership and a people-first culture. Help shape the future of Lifetime Planning at Redkite.
Private Client is one of the firm’s largest and most strategically important departments, playing a significant role in both our growth and the experience we deliver to our clients and communities. As part of our long-term vision, we have evolved our Private Client offering into specialist Probate and Lifetime Planning teams. We believe this allows us to better support clients through increasingly complex personal, financial and family situations, whilst also giving our lawyers the opportunity to deepen their expertise and build meaningful, long-term client relationships.
Our approach to client experience
We believe great Lifetime Planning lawyers don’t just respond to instructions – they help clients define what they need. That means asking thoughtful questions, identifying risks clients may not yet have considered, and addressing the wider emotional and practical context around their decisions. Our aim is to give clients confidence in the future, knowing their affairs are structured in a way that reflects what matters most to them.
Requirements
What will you be doing?
You’ll support clients through some of the most sensitive and important moments in their lives – often at times of loss or significant change – providing not only high-quality legal advice, but reassurance, clarity and practical guidance.
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.
