Job description

Do you want to help us make a lasting difference to the lives of dogs and their owners?
We’re searching for an experienced Legacy Officer, who will play a vital role in ensuring every gift left to Dogs Trust in a will reaches its full potential. This role sits at the heart of our work, as every legacy makes a difference to the dogs we support.

What does this role do?
As a Legacy Officer, you will: 

  • manage a caseload of pecuniary, specific, life interest, and residuary legacies, ensuring the charity receives its full entitlement and maximising value where possible,
  • liaise with external stakeholders, such as executors or solicitors, handling sensitive conversations efficiently and professionally,
  • review estate accounts, including the allocation of Capital Gains Tax (CGT) and Inheritance Tax (IHT), to confirm estates are correctly administered,
  • represent the charity’s interests in all legacy-related correspondence, handling queries from legal professionals and the public with professionalism,
  • maintain accurate records using the First Class 4 database, support with reporting, and escalate significant matters to senior legal staff as needed.

Interviews for this role are provisionally scheduled for week commencing 17th August 2026, and will take place at our London office.

Could this be you?
With proven experience in legacy administration, you will have good knowledge of wills, probate, tax and trust law. With excellent attention to detail, you will be highly organised and able to demonstrate experience of managing and prioritising own caseload. A certificate in Charity Legacy Administration is desirable.
