What are the key skills and qualifications needed to thrive as a Planner, and why are they important?

To thrive as a Planner, you need expertise in project management, data analysis, and strategic thinking, often supported by a degree in urban planning, business, or a related field. Familiarity with planning software such as GIS, project management tools, and relevant certifications like AICP (for urban planners) are typically advantageous. Strong communication, problem-solving, and organizational skills help Planners effectively coordinate with stakeholders and manage complex projects. These abilities are essential for creating efficient, sustainable plans that align with organizational or community goals.

What are planning jobs?

Planning jobs generally refer to roles involved in developing strategies and organizing resources to achieve specific goals within an organization or community. These positions can exist in various sectors, such as urban planning, event planning, financial planning, and project planning. Professionals in planning jobs analyze data, coordinate stakeholders, set timelines, and ensure that projects or initiatives proceed efficiently and successfully. Their work is essential for optimizing processes, budgeting, and meeting objectives within set constraints.

What is the difference between Planning vs Scheduling?

AspectPlanningScheduling
FocusDeveloping strategies, defining scope, and setting objectivesCreating detailed timelines and assigning specific tasks
CredentialsProject management certifications, industry experienceProject management or technical certifications, experience in tools
Work EnvironmentHigh-level, strategic, often in offices or project sitesDetail-oriented, task-focused, often in offices or on-site
UsageInitial project phases, overall project setupExecution phase, day-to-day task management

Planning involves setting the overall project strategy and objectives, while scheduling focuses on creating detailed timelines and task assignments to execute the plan effectively. Both roles are essential but serve different purposes within project management.

How does a Planning professional typically collaborate with other departments to ensure project success?

Planning professionals play a central role in coordinating with various departments such as engineering, procurement, and project management to align project timelines and resources. They often facilitate regular meetings, update schedules based on input from stakeholders, and resolve conflicts that may arise due to shifting priorities or unforeseen challenges. Effective collaboration requires strong communication skills and the ability to adapt plans dynamically, ensuring all teams remain informed and aligned toward common goals. This cross-functional teamwork is critical to delivering projects on time and within scope.

Job description

Estate Planning Paralegal (Atlanta/Sandy Springs)

Slowik Estate Planning LLC | Sandy Springs, GA | Full-Time, In-Office

Salary: $55,000–$75,000 depending on experience, plus benefits stipend and performance bonus potential


---

About the Firm


Slowik Estate Planning is a growing boutique firm in Sandy Springs serving high-net-worth individuals and families across metro Atlanta. Our work spans foundational planning (revocable living trusts, wills, powers of attorney) through sophisticated tax and asset protection strategies—irrevocable gifting trusts, ILITs, SLATs, charitable trusts, and domestic asset protection planning. We're referral-driven, working closely with wealth managers and financial advisors, and our clients expect white-glove service.


We're a small team with big standards, and we're growing fast. This is a chance to be a key hire at a firm where your work directly shapes the client experience—not one of thirty paralegals in a document mill.


The Role


You'll be the operational backbone of the practice. You'll own the client experience from intake through trust funding completion, working directly with the attorney on every matter. Your responsibilities will include:


-Client intake and onboarding—managing new client inquiries, engagement letters, questionnaires, and document collection

-Document drafting—preparing first drafts of revocable trusts, pour-over wills, powers of attorney, and healthcare directives in WealthCounsel; assisting with complex instruments (ILITs, charitable trusts, gifting trusts) under attorney supervision

-Trust funding—preparing deeds, transfer letters, and beneficiary designation changes; managing the follow-up pipeline with financial institutions until every asset is retitled

-Probate and trust administration support—Georgia probate filings, asset inventories, coordination with CPAs

-Practice management— running our Clio workflows, maintaining organized digital files, managing the master calendar, tracking deadlines, and keeping our referral partners updated on shared client matters

-Client communication—serving as the friendly, responsive first point of contact for routine client questions


Who We're Looking For


Experience matters less to us than work ethic, attention to detail, and genuine care for clients. We will train the right person. That said, here's the profile:


Required:


- 2+ years of paralegal or legal assistant experience (estate planning preferred, but we'll consider other backgrounds)

- Exceptional organization and follow-through—this job is won or lost on whether things fall through the cracks

- Strong written communication; you'll draft client emails and correspondence daily

- Comfort with technology and willingness to master Clio and WealthCounsel

- Professionalism with sophisticated clients and their financial advisors


Nice to have:


- WealthCounsel or other document assembly experience

- Georgia court experience

- Trust funding experience (retitling accounts, recording deeds)

- Paralegal certificate or degree


Why This Role


- Direct mentorship from the attorney—you'll learn sophisticated estate planning most paralegals never see

- Real ownership and autonomy once trained, not micromanagement

- Growth path: as the firm grows, so does your role and compensation

- Small-firm culture: no bureaucracy, no billable-hour pressure games, no office politics

- Modern systems: cloud-based practice management, established workflows, organized templates


How to Apply


Submit your resume along with a brief cover note (a paragraph is fine) answering one question: describe a time you built or improved a system or process that made your work more reliable. Applications without this note will not be considered.


We review applications on a rolling basis and move quickly for strong candidates.

Slowik Estate Planning LLC is an equal opportunity employer.
