One of London’s most successful law firms is keen to hire an experienced Legal Bookkeeper, hopefully with some experience of Trust Accounts and Private Clients. It's working as part of the wider Finance Team who are friendly and supportive, although your role would be pretty much standalone.
The team administers approximately 100 domestic trusts for wealthy families and entrepreneurs. The work covers the full spectrum of discretionary and interest in possession trusts and charities where the team manages the accounting and tax compliance cycle. Typical duties will include:-
* assisting with the trust accounting function for family trusts administered in our private client group;
* posting of transactional information (usually in relation to investment portfolios or rental properties) up to trial balance level;
* subsequent generation of draft trust accounts; and supporting the wider team particularly in client due diligence and the maintenance of client due diligence information for trustees and beneficiaries.
To apply, you will need to have worked in legal finance/accounts before, and ideally have some experience in the Trust/Private Client/ Wealth Management sector.
In return you will be working at an incredibly well managed and well-run law firm, as part of a team that all get on fantastically well and are very social.
