Legal Secretary
Meridian Business Support
Remote-friendly
An exciting Legal Secretary opportunity has arisen at the offices of our client, one of the UK's top 100 law firms where you will be providing support to fee earners within the highly collaborative, busy Commercial Real Estate team. Your lynchpin role will be varied with no day being the same, and will encompass taking ownership of processes to ensure various legal secretarial and administrative support tasks are completed on time for a wide range of clients ensuring a high level of service.
As a Legal Secretary your new role will involve:
- Working alongside business support teams (e.g. document production) internally to ensure tasks are completed to deadlines
- Acting as a key point of contact for clients, building strong relationships
- Complex diary management and setting up meetings, calls and appointments
- Assisting with preparation for meetings and follow up on behalf of fee earners
- Preparing pitches, presentations and client materials for business development purposes
- Maintaining up to date information on the CRM system
- Producing financial reports and supporting with billing activities
- Building relationships both with internal stakeholders
- Helping to plan events
I am very interested in speaking with candidates who have experience working as a Legal Secretary, Legal PA, Personal Assistant, or Secretary supporting multiple fee earners / professionals, and who have a background supporting within a Commercial Real Estate (or if not a Residential Conveyancing) team - including dealing with engrossment documents and Land Registry processes. A passion for empathetic client care and adaptability, along with the ability to prioritise your own workload and solid proof reading, accuracy and IT skills (MS Office) are important for this Legal Secretary opportunity. Experience / knowledge of BigHand or Peppermint would be attractive but isn't essential.
Salary for this position is c. £33,000 to £35,000 (depending on level of experience).
Benefits include: hybrid working, life assurance, private healthcare, Group Income Protection, your birthday off (if it falls on a working day), charity day to use each year, Employee Assistance Programme, and company social events.
The company's offices offer free parking on-site. If you don't drive they are only a 2 mins walk from the nearest bus stop, and only a 12 minute walk from the nearest train station.
