A varied role with a mix of billing, legal support and office exposure within a global firm.

We’re working with a global law firm on a Legal Assistant opportunity that offers something a little different.

This is a hybrid role suited to someone junior who has some exposure to billing and is looking to build on that, while also getting involved in the day-to-day running of a busy office. It’s a great opportunity to step into a role with real variety, rather than being siloed into one area. 
You’ll be supporting a Partner with billing and matter administration, while also working alongside the office support team to keep things running smoothly in a collaborative environment.

About You

• 1–2+ years’ experience in a legal or professional services environment;
