  • Acting as a key point of contact for clients and internal stakeholders
  • Ensuring lawyers are fully prepared for meetings with all relevant materials

What They’re Looking For

  • Strong understanding of legal processes and working in a high-pressure environment
  • Highly organised with excellent attention to detail
  • Confident managing multiple priorities and tight deadlines
  • Strong communication skills and the ability to build relationships at all levels
  • Advanced MS Office skills (experience with document tools and billing systems is beneficial)
  • A proactive, solutions-focused mindset

Why This Role?

  • A collaborative, inclusive and high-performing team environment
  • A firm known for being dynamic, entrepreneurial and people-focused
  • Real scope to add value and become a key part of the team
