Salary: £90,000+ DOE

About the Company:

This highly regarded UK law firm is recognised for its strength in Private Client work and its forward-thinking, people-led culture. With a strong national footprint and a growing London presence, the firm is consistently ranked at the top of the Chambers High Net Worth tables and is known for its collaborative approach, technical excellence, and long-term investment in its people.

Role Summary:

An opportunity has arisen for an ambitious Senior Associate to join the firm’s international Private Client team in London. The role offers exposure to complex, cross-border private wealth matters and a genuine pathway for progression within a supportive and high-performing team. You’ll be encouraged to think commercially, build trusted client relationships, and broaden your expertise beyond pure technical advice.

Key Responsibilities:

• Advising internationally mobile individuals on UK tax residence, Foreign Income and Gains rules, and treaty relief, enabling clients to manage their UK exposure effectively

• Supporting clients on exiting UK tax residence and navigating inheritance tax tail issues, providing clarity around long-term planning

• Advising trustees and family offices on offshore structures, restructuring and wind-ups, helping clients respond to evolving tax rules

• Advising on succession planning, Business Relief changes, and wealth structuring to protect and transition family wealth

• Working closely with UK and overseas advisers on estate planning matters, delivering joined-up international advice

Requirements:

• Qualified solicitor with significant experience in private client work, with a strong international focus

• Ability to take ownership of matters and manage client relationships confidently

• Experience working to financial and non-financial targets

• Strong commercial awareness and an ability to tailor advice to client objectives

If this role isn’t quite right, it’s still worth speaking to one of our specialist team — we may be working on something that hasn’t hit the market yet.
