- Copy typing of correspondence and legal documents
- Processing of large and small legal documents, including correspondence and bills
- Use of a case management system (Tikit)
- Dealing with both contentious and non-contentious work
- Undertaking diary management, task management and general support for busy fee earners
- Maintaining good organisation of new and ongoing files (the firm is mostly paper-light)
- Taking messages from new and existing clients
- Provision of occasional reception
- Opening and closing files
- Previous experience working in a legal secretarial capacity, ideally within three or more different fields of law
- Good secretarial skills including audio and copy typing, and proficiency in MS Word and Excel
- Good organisational skills and the ability to prioritise
- Experience of using digital dictation systems and case management systems

This is a full-time permanent job working 35 hours per week, Monday to Friday.

**Benefits include**:

- 24 days’ annual leave plus the option to purchase additional days
- Matching 4% pension contributions
- Life Assurance of 4x salary
- Discounts on personal conveyancing and wills
- Corporate discounts on gym memberships, restaurants, and days out
- Annual flu jabs
- Ongoing career development and CPD training, with ample opportunities for staff to build on their skills and experience
