Private Client Senior Associate

Hampshire – £45,000 - £60,000

Private Client Senior Associate , Hampshire
 
My client has an opportunity for someone to be the main point of contact within Private Client. A member of staff is leaving and succession planning is underway - the firm could even consider someone who wishes to come in as a salaried partner- or at least - someone with designs on achieving that in the short or medium term.
 
You will inherit a mixed caseload of wills, trusts, LPAs and probate work. Some estates work comes in also.
 
 
Most of the work comes in from a loyal local client base where families have used the firm over many decades.
 
You'll be technically strong and you'll have a free run at any work coming into the firm. There would be an existing caseload to inherit in any case.
 
The firm are open to hybrid working and slightly staggered start times to accomodate people who need that bit of flexibility.
 
As well as a competitive salary you can expect to find :
 
- A family atmosphere with a close knit team
- Opportunity to progress to salaried or equity partnership in the future
- 25 days holiday plus stats but closed completely over christmas and new year
- Parking options
- Quarterly bonus and contributory pension
 
 
The key here is to work with the existing client base, they walk into the office, they enjoy good service and a bit of TLC !
 
The firm are situated around the Hampshire / Dorset border which is a fantastic place to live. Applications from relocators will be considered however you should be able to demonstrate a commitment to live and work in the area.
