“I’m currently a general corporate/commercial tax lawyer at a national firm with just over one year’s PQE. Although I really enjoy the intellectual aspects of tax work and get on well with my team, I would like to move into a more client-facing specialism, such as high net worth private client or family.
“However, as my firm does not do private client I have never had the opportunity to gain the necessary experience that even NQ positions seem to require. I have had a good scout around but there do not seem to be many work experience opportunities available. I have a three-month sabbatical coming up – does anyone have any suggestions about how I might gain experience in order to make the leap? (And I have already considered working in a Citizen’s Advice Bureau…)”
