Job description

Join our Legacy Administration Team as the right hand to the Team Leader, where you’ll play a key role in managing a vibrant mix of specific, residuary, and reversionary bequests. You’ll help transform supporters’ final wishes into real-world impact, ensuring every generous legacy gift reaches its full potential for Marie Curie’s vital work

Description for Internal Candidates

Marie Curie is the UK’s leading end-of-life charity. We are the largest non-NHS provider of end-of-life care in the UK, the only provider across all four nations, delivering community nursing and hospice care across the country, while providing information and support on all aspects of dying, death, and bereavement. Our leading research pushes the boundaries of what we know about good end-of-life, and our campaigns fight for a world where everyone gets to have the best possible quality of life while living with an illness, they’re likely to die from.

Your Role in Our Vision

Join our Legacy Administration Team and manage a varied and active caseload of specific, residuary, and reversionary bequests. This is a pivotal role, helping to ensure that every gift left to Marie Curie is handled with care, accuracy, and respect — enabling us to continue delivering our essential services.

Legacy income is one of the most significant sources of funding for our charity. In this role, you will be responsible for safeguarding and maximising that income through diligent case management, effective communication with solicitors and executors, and a firm understanding of probate law and best practice. Your work directly contributes to our ability to care for people affected by terminal illness.

Experience across all UK jurisdictions is not essential, as full training will be provided.

Key Responsibilities

  • Manage a caseload of specific, residuary, and reversionary legacies across the UK.
  • Ensure Marie Curie receives its full legal entitlement, in line with Wills and settlements.
  • Handle correspondence efficiently, updating records on our FirstClass 4 database and meeting internal service standards.
  • Act as the lead charity where appropriate and liaise with co-beneficiaries.
  • Monitor and progress open cases to ensure timely completion.
  • Review estate accounts carefully, ensuring accuracy and appropriate application of tax exemptions.
  • Obtain tax deduction certificates where cost-effective to do so.
  • Ensure funds are allocated correctly to restricted or unrestricted purposes as specified in Wills.
  • Comply with Law Society guidelines regarding Non-Contentious Costs.
  • Represent Marie Curie’s interests in shared estates and collaborate with legal professionals and the public.
  • Identify and escalate potential risks or disputes that may affect our entitlement.
  • Seek opportunities to maximise the value of legacies and proactively manage estate assets.
  • Support stewardship activity by working closely with the Legacy Marketing and Local Legacy teams.

What You’ll Need

  • Proven experience in legacy administration.
  • Experience working in or with the charity sector.
  • ILM Certificate in Charity Legacy Administration, Law Degree, or relevant professional qualification.
  • Strong understanding of probate law and estate management.
  • Excellent communication and interpersonal skills.
  • Highly organised with a strong attention to detail.
  • Confident using digital systems and databases.
