Private Wealth Solicitor | Leading Legal 500 National Specialist | Reading with Remote Capability 

\n An outstanding opportunity has arisen for a Private Wealth Solicitor or Private Wealth Lawyer to join the Reading office of a national specialist practice recognised by the Legal 500 for its exceptional Private Wealth expertise.
\n Founded by senior partners from a leading national firm, the business has enjoyed exceptional growth and has ambitious plans to double in size over the next five years.

Instead, you will join a friendly, collaborative team where people enjoy working together in a relaxed, high performing environment.

\n This opportunity would suit a Private Wealth Solicitor or Private Client Solicitor looking to develop their career within a specialist Private Wealth practice. Applications are welcomed from lawyers at any stage of their career, provided they have experience handling Private Wealth matters and are looking to work with high quality clients in a supportive, ambitious environment.

\n One of the firm's biggest attractions is its genuine flexibility.

\n Office attendance is only required when needed, with a minimum expectation of just one day each week in the office, entirely of your choosing. If you prefer spending more time with colleagues, the office is always open, but the emphasis is on trust, autonomy and maintaining an excellent work life balance without compromising collaboration.

\n Alongside this flexibility, you'll benefit from an excellent package, including:
\n • Full paralegal support, allowing you to focus on higher value Private Wealth work
\n • A realistic chargeable hours target
\n • A high quality and varied Private Wealth caseload with early responsibility and client exposure
\n • Direct access to senior leadership within a genuinely non hierarchical structure
\n • Clear progression opportunities as part of an ambitious and rapidly expanding national Private Wealth practice
\n • 33 days annual leave, including bank holidays, plus an additional day's leave for your birthday
\n • The option to buy or sell up to one week's annual leave
\n • Private Medical Insurance and dental cover through Bupa
\n • Death in service cover of three times annual salary
\n • A salary sacrifice pension scheme with a 5% employee contribution and a 5.5% employer contribution after three months' service
\n • Annual discretionary bonus and salary review

\n The Private Wealth team advises individuals, families, entrepreneurs and business owners across the full spectrum of Private Wealth matters. The caseload includes estate planning, tax planning, Wills, Trust creation and administration, Lasting Powers of Attorney, estate administration, succession planning, Family Investment Companies and Personal Investment Companies.

\n Many clients are high net worth individuals with UK and international assets, meaning the team regularly advises on complex cross border Private Wealth matters while working closely with accountants, financial advisers and other professional contacts to provide a seamless service.

\n If you're looking to build your career within a genuinely specialist Private Wealth team, enjoy first class flexibility and high quality work, and become part of an ambitious national practice with significant growth plans, this is an opportunity well worth exploring.
