My client, a Financial Services organisation, is looking for a Trusts Lawyer to join their legal team based in London.
Client Details
A London based Financial Services organisation.
Description
Reporting into the Senior Legal Counsel you will be responsible for advising the business on a range of legal issues relating to the trusts, personal tax and IHT teams. Your stakeholders will typically be business protection teams, claims teams, financial advisers and sales compliance team.
This role is a great opportunity for a lawyer with a trusts and personal taxation skill set to move into a rarely available in house position in a large financial services organisation.
Profile
This role is likely to suit a candidate with experience of advising on personal tax issues such as trusts and inheritance tax matters. STEP (Society of Trusts and Estates) qualification would be beneficial but is not essential.
Due to the level of work involved this position will probably be appropriate for a lawyer with around 2 - 5 years of experience*
