Another exciting opportunity has arisen for a Legal Secretary/PA at one of the most successful US Law firms based in the City.
Salary - £52,000+
Location - Liverpool Street
Hybrid - 4:1
Benefits - Incentivised benefits package, annual performance bonus, free meals, state of the art offices
Working in a bustling environment, you will work across the Financial Restructuring department, supporting a mixture of Fee Earners from Partner to Trainee. That said, the benefits of working for a firm of this magnitude are a high degree of involvement for the individual with a full 360-degree role that'll keep all of your skills up to date. Add into the mix a much-heralded department with a fantastic team ethic and you'll thrive.
Within this practice group, the Legal Secretary/PA will have a broad range of duties and responsibilities, which include:
- Diary management, arranging meeting and scheduling conference calls
- Organising travel and preparing itineraries
- Creating, proof reading and amending documents
- Organising, scanning and maintaining emails and documents with the document management system (Lawman)
- Preparation and coordination of monthly client bills
- Conducting conflict checks and Companies House searches
- File opening and due diligence, liaising with clients to schedule a time for them to come in with required ID documents
- Assisting with transaction completion process, including scanning, photocopying transaction documents, creating completion bibles, attending to post-completion filings
- Arranging/managing business development events (internally and externally) by: obtaining internal approval of budget requests, sourcing catering/drinks suppliers, creating invites, managing list of invitees and responses, paying suppliers, assisting and overseeing events
- Creating and managing Excel spreadsheets for various projects
- Managing emails and client contact lists
- Assisting with Legal 500 and Chambers submissions
Previous experience within a law firm is a must, ideally from a US one but they're not set on this. As for Legal knowledge, a solid background in Finance or Restructuring would be great but they will consider any form of Corporate or Litigation experience too.
For more information on this role or any of the other ones available, please don't hesitate to get in touch.
