Glasgow, United Kingdom Pinsent Masons Full time

**BIRMINGHAM, GLASGOW, EDINBURGH, MANCHESTER, LEEDS, LONDON**

**Brief**

We are currently seeking to recruit a lawyer or lawyers to specialise in employment taxes, commercial trusts and/or charity law.

**Location**

The role is available in any of our UK offices.

**The Team**

This is an opportunity to join a cutting edge and very varied practice. Whilst the role is unique, it will provide wide-ranging and transferable experience and skill sets.

We have summarised below some key background to each of the areas:

- **Employment Tax/Trusts**

This comprises the following areas, and plays a significant role in the firm’s Employment & Reward practice (of which the team forms part):

- Employment tax (a full range of support to the Employment team's clients and the wider firm, including termination issues, employment status/IR35, and structuring in relation to internationally mobile employees).
- Advising on employee-incentivisation benefits, such as death in service schemes, and acting for most of the providers in the healthcare trusts market on the development of new processes and services. The team is a national leader in this area, which often requires a combination of tax and trust law expertise.
- Providing support to the Pensions team and its clients on tax issues arising in relation to pension-related products.
- Working closely with the share incentives team in relation to issues arising from employee benefit trusts.

**Commercial Trusts Practice**

The team is a national leader in this area, working closely with the firm's insurance/financial services sector and pensions teams. Work is diverse and may involve drafting suites of documents, technical questions or advice on often cutting-edge new products and services. It includes:

- advising most of the leading insurers on the development of new trust-related products and services, drafting suites of pro-forma trust documents and ad hoc technical queries.
- advising on trusts in the context of restructurings and insolvency, including customer and supplier protection trusts.
- working with the corporate and banking teams on issues where trustees are buying/selling/charging assets.
- assisting corporate trustees with trust and tax law issues arising in relation to unit trusts and co-ownership structures.
- advising on other commercial trust arrangements as and when required, e.g funeral trust products.

**Charity Law Advice**

advising on the scope for re-purposing of endowment funds;
dealing with charity law issues in relation to mergers (including advice on dealing with special trusts);
advice on issues around governance and trustee effectiveness;
advising on the structuring of commercial activities, trading and investments.
