Nos conseils pour postuler

5 recommandations générées par notre IA pour maximiser vos chances.

⭐ Lead your CV personal statement with your PQE level and the full breadth of Private Client work you cover — the advert explicitly requires the 'whole remit' including tax, trusts, wills, probate and Court of Protection.

📊 Quantify your caseload: e.g. 'Managed a portfolio of 80+ active probate and estate administration matters simultaneously, completing 95% within agreed timescales.'

🎯 Highlight any STEP qualification or progress towards it prominently — the advert flags it as ideal, so even part-completion (e.g. STEP Foundation) will differentiate you from other applicants.

🌐 Mention hybrid or flexible working experience if relevant, as the advert notes hybrid options may be available — demonstrating you can work effectively remotely reassures the firm.

🤝 Reference experience working within a regional or high-street firm environment, as the employer is described as a reputable regional firm — this signals cultural fit and familiarity with the client base.

Dear Hiring Manager,

Private Client work spanning wills, trusts, estate administration and Court of Protection is where I have built my legal career — which is why this role at your North Norfolk firm immediately stood out. With over two years of post-qualification experience in Private Client law, I have developed a thorough grounding in inheritance tax planning and probate administration, precisely the skills your department requires.

My background in Private Client practice includes managing a caseload of complex estate administrations and trust matters, advising clients through some of the most sensitive periods of their lives with both technical rigour and genuine empathy. I am currently progressing towards my STEP qualification, further deepening my expertise in trust and estate planning.

1Question

Tell me about a time you managed a particularly sensitive or complex probate matter — how did you handle the client relationship?

Situation: A client came to me following the sudden death of their spouse, leaving an estate worth approximately £1.2 million with a disputed asset and a potential inheritance tax liability. Task: I needed to administer the estate efficiently while managing the emotional distress of the client and a disagreement between two beneficiaries. Action: I held a structured meeting with all parties, clearly explained the legal process and timescales, and instructed a specialist valuer to resolve the disputed asset within three weeks. I provided fortnightly written updates to keep all parties informed. Result: The estate was fully administered within nine months, the tax liability was reduced by £40,000 through a deed of variation, and the client left a five-star Google review praising the clarity of communication throughout.

2Question

Describe a situation where you had to manage competing deadlines across multiple Private Client matters — how did you prioritise?

Situation: During a particularly busy quarter, I was simultaneously handling 55 active files including three time-critical Court of Protection applications and two estates approaching the HMRC inheritance tax payment deadline. Task: I needed to ensure no deadline was missed while maintaining quality of advice across all matters. Action: I introduced a weekly file review system, colour-coding matters by urgency, and delegated routine correspondence on lower-priority files to a paralegal I supervised. I communicated proactively with clients where timescales were likely to extend. Result: All three Court of Protection applications were filed on time, both IHT payments were made before the six-month deadline avoiding interest charges of approximately £3,200, and client satisfaction scores remained at 97% for the quarter.
