Due to team expansion, Age UK has an exciting opportunity to join our ambitious, specialist and high achieving Legacy Management Team as we are currently recruiting for a Legacy Officer.

Working as part of an established, respected, and supportive team you’ll be managing a portfolio of mostly residuary and reversionary estates where the charity is named as a beneficiary; monitoring and expediting the collection of legacy income and adding value to maximise legacies within a legal framework.

Although this can be fast paced, it is tremendously rewarding, and we provide full support with an emphasis on well-being. You’ll be part of our award-winning fundraising division and we actively encourage learning and development to enable you to build upon your knowledge and succeed.
