Job Requirements:
- Experience: Minimum of 7–10+ years of experience in wealth planning, estate law, or tax advisory, specifically serving HNW/UHNW families within a family office, private bank, or elite law/CPA firm.
- Bachelor’s degree required; advanced degree (JD, LL.M. in Taxation, or Master’s in Tax) is highly preferred.
- Professional designations such as CFP®, CPA, or TEP (Trust and Estate Practitioner) are strong pluses.
