Free Executor Starter Kit

A calm first step if you have just become an executor in Australia. One spreadsheet with four working tabs, nothing to install, and no email address needed to download it.

What is inside

  • First 14 Days: 28 common early tasks with official links and a progress count.
  • Mini Notification Register: 15 organisations people commonly notify, with space for dates and reference numbers.
  • Key Contacts: executors, solicitor, accountant, family and advisers in one list.
  • Where Things Are: a locator for the will, documents, password hints (never the passwords) and keys.

Works in Google Sheets and Excel. It is a record-keeping tool. Statutory time limits are not pre-filled because they depend on your state and situation.

Download the free Starter Kit (zip)

Free. No signup. The zip holds one Excel file (.xlsx) that also opens in Google Sheets: upload it to Google Drive and open it with Google Sheets. Alongside the four working tabs it has a Start Here tab, a Disclaimer & Review tab and a Lists tab.

Prefer an email guide as well? The optional form on this page sends 3 short emails over about two weeks, only if you tick its box. Downloading does not sign you up to anything.

Not sure what an executor does?

Read our plain-English first-14-days checklist first. It covers the same ground in an article.
