A highly regarded national law firm is seeking a Private Client Lawyer to join its ranked Private Wealth team in Birmingham.

The firm offers a hybrid working pattern, a genuine people-first culture, and recognised commitment to inclusion and professional development.

Qualified solicitor, ideally 4–8 years' PQE
Strong experience in private client law, particularly high-value/complex probate and estate planning for high-net-worth clients and the creation and administration of lifetime and Will trusts
Interest or experience in income tax, inheritance tax and capital gains tax planning and reporting
STEP qualification desirable, or a willingness to undertake STEP (funded by the firm)
Business development skills; an existing intermediary network advantageous
Excellent communication, IT, organisation and time-management skills, with the ability to prioritise and meet deadlines
