Are you an experienced tax professional with a background in estate administration-and ideally some exposure to trusts? Whether you're ATT or CTA qualified (or working towards it), this opportunity offers scope to deepen your expertise and work flexibly, from anywhere in the UK.

A leading professional services and law firm is seeking a Private Client Estates Manager to join its well-regarded Estates team.

• Opportunity to handle sophisticated estate matters with tax and trust elements

• Exposure to wider private client and advisory work

Key responsibilities:

• Managing estate administration matters from start to finish

• Preparing and submitting IHT returns, including use of relevant allowances (e.g. NRB, TNRB)

• Experience or awareness of business relief and agricultural relief welcomed

• Drafting estate accounts and liaising with tax professionals and advisers

• Supporting more junior colleagues and collaborating with senior team members

• Familiarity with Probate Registry systems and HMRC processes

What we're looking for:

• Strong experience in estate administration and/or private client tax
