Apply in confidence →

Join a London-based U.S. private client and tax team advising high-net-worth individuals, families, family offices and closely held businesses on U.S. and cross-border tax, trust and estate planning. The role involves technical tax advice, drafting wills and trusts, and advising on expatriation, pre-immigration planning and investment structuring for U.S. and non-U.S. clients investing in the U.S.

The team handles a mix of advisory and drafting work, producing technical memoranda, researching Internal Revenue Code and Regulations, and communicating directly with clients. The role suits a self-motivated, collaborative lawyer used to working across time zones and disciplines.

This is a hybrid position with an expectation of regular office attendance (typically 2–3 days per week on average) and participation in a fast-paced, international private client practice.

  • Admitted to practice in the U.S.; U.S. qualification required
  • 2–5 years' post-qualification experience (associate level); JD preferred
  • LLM in taxation or tax-focused law school concentration, or demonstrable practical tax/estate planning experience
  • Experience researching IRC and Regulations, preparing technical memoranda and drafting wills and trusts
  • Strong client-facing skills and written communication; prior international experience (ideally with exposure to London practice) desirable
