Probate Lawyer / Senior Associate \n Salary: £55,000–£70,000 \n Location: Remote within the UK \n \n The opportunity \n \n We’re building a modern legal service designed to support people through some of life’s most important and difficult moments. Probate is the next stage of that journey, and we’re looking for an experienced lawyer to help create the service from the ground up. \n \n You’ll be the first dedicated probate lawyer in the team, working alongside experienced legal, product and technology colleagues to develop an initial probate offering focused on obtaining grants of probate. Over time, there is significant scope to expand the service into wider estate administration. \n \n This is an unusual opportunity to combine hands-on legal work with service and product development. You’ll manage your own caseload while helping us design clearer, faster and more repeatable ways of delivering probate services. \n \n We’re looking for someone who believes probate can be done much better—and wants to help prove it. \n \n What you’ll do \n \n Manage a caseload of probate matters from initial instruction through to obtaining the grant. \n Advise executors clearly and empathetically, ensuring they receive the right information at the right time. \n Prepare and submit probate applications. \n Handle relevant correspondence and submissions to HMRC and other organisations. \n Work closely with product managers, engineers and experienced lawyers to design the initial service. \n Map existing probate processes and turn them into efficient, repeatable workflows. \n Identify where software, automation and AI can remove administrative work without compromising legal quality or client care. \n Help develop precedents, guidance, controls and operational standards. \n Test new tools and provide practical feedback based on real casework. \n Contribute to the longer-term development of a broader estate administration service. \n \n About you \n \n You are likely to be a strong Senior Associate or similarly experienced probate lawyer with substantial practical knowledge of private client probate work. \n \n You’ll need: \n \n Significant experience managing your own probate caseload. \n In-depth knowledge of grant applications and the associated HMRC requirements. \n The ability to explain technical and emotionally difficult subjects in straightforward, reassuring language. \n A strong understanding of what executors need throughout the probate process. \n A practical, process-minded approach and an interest in improving how legal work is delivered. \n Confidence working collaboratively with colleagues outside the legal profession, particularly product and technology teams. \n An interest in using AI, automation or other technology to improve legal services. \n Sound judgement, intellectual curiosity and a low-ego approach to teamwork. \n A willingness to remain close to the detail and do the legal work yourself. \n \n You do not need to have led a probate department. In fact, this role is unlikely to suit someone looking primarily for a management or file-review position. Equally, we’re not looking for a solo operator: the service will be built collaboratively, and your ability to work openly with others will be essential. \n \n Why join? \n \n You’ll have the opportunity to shape a new probate service at its earliest stage rather than inherit an established way of working. \n \n The earlier you join, the more influence you’ll have over the service model, client journey, legal processes and technology that support it. Our aim is not simply to recreate a traditional probate practice online. We want to build tools and processes that allow an excellent service to scale without relying on continually adding more people. \n \n You’ll join a thoughtful, ambitious team with a clear route to market and a long-term goal: to become the most trusted legal partner for life’s defining events. \n \n Working arrangements \n \n The role can be performed remotely from anywhere in the UK. The team meets periodically for workshops in London, usually around once per quarter, with reasonable travel costs covered. \n \n Interview process \n \n The anticipated process will include: \n \n An initial conversation with a product leader, focused on the role, your approach to probate and working with a multidisciplinary team. \n A second interview with senior members of the business. \n A practical exercise exploring your legal knowledge, process thinking and approach to technology. \n
