Legal Director – Private Wealth & Tax

An exciting opportunity has arisen for a Legal Director to join a leading Private Wealth & Tax practice in London. You will act as a key right-hand practitioner to a partner in this Tier 1 team, contributing to the day-to-day management and growth of a high-profile cross-border practice.

You will be involved in advising on UK personal tax, trust, and estate planning matters for internationally mobile and formerly non-domiciled clients, with a particular focus on US-UK tax, offshore structures, and the new foreign income and gains regime. The role offers the chance to work with high-profile individuals, families, family offices, and hedge funds across the UK, Ireland, the USA, and Latin America.

We are looking for a qualified solicitor in England and Wales with a minimum of seven years’ PQE in UK personal tax. You will have strong technical knowledge of the historic remittance basis, the UK tax treatment of offshore trusts and companies, and cross-border estate planning. Experience with US-related tax and trust matters is an advantage but not essential. You will also be a collaborative, trusted adviser with excellent analytical and problem-solving skills, comfortable working closely with a senior partner.
