Are you the calm in the legal storm? Do you thrive on organisation, precision, and being the reliable right-hand to a Partner in a fast-paced legal environment? If so, we want to hear from you.
We're currently on the lookout for a dynamic, detail-driven Legal Assistant to join our client's Commercial Property, Land & Development teams.
This is not a fee-earning role, but it is a key one - you'll be helping to keep the wheels of our client's legal machine turning smoothly by freeing up time for the Partner to tackle the complex stuff, while you make sure everything else is running like clockwork.

You'll be an indispensable member of the team, supporting with tasks such as:
. High-quality admin support directly to a Partner
. Drafting legal documents (with guidance)
. Preparing files for billing and completion
. Liaising with clients and keeping them in the loop
. Handling digital dictation and correspondence
. Managing calls, emails, and messages like a pro
. Offering a warm, empathetic client experience - especially when things get tough
. Ensuring compliance with LEXCEL, the Law Society, and Solicitors Accounts Rules

What We're Looking For:
Essential:
. Experience in legal work, ideally at paralegal level (even if the role isn't fee-earning)
. Calm, focused, and polite under pressure
. Fantastic communicator - both written and verbal
. Strong attention to detail and organisation
. Confident with Microsoft Office and digital systems
. A team player who loves variety and can work at pace
. Professional, proactive, and friendly
Desirable:
. Background in property legal work, especially residential conveyancing or land & development
. Experience in a busy legal environment
