I’m working with a well-established national law firm with a strong reputation in the Banking & Finance space. The firm is known for its collaborative and supportive culture, where people work closely together and take real pride in the work they do.

They are currently looking for an experienced Legal Assistant to join their Sydney team, supporting a small group of lawyers within the Banking & Finance practice.

This role will suit someone who enjoys the more traditional side of being a Legal Assistant, managing diaries, keeping files organised, assisting with billing and ensuring the administrative side of matters runs smoothly. The team is busy, but very supportive, and they’re looking for someone who is confident in their role and comfortable working autonomously.

What the role will involve:

• Managing diaries and coordinating meetings;

• Preparing, formatting and finalising legal documents;

• Dictaphone typing and general correspondence;

• Billing and assisting with financial administration;

• File management and document organisation;

• Assisting with client enquiries and general team support; and

• Mail merges, document formatting and data entry.

About you

This role will suit a Legal Assistant who already has solid experience in private practice and enjoys being the person who keeps things organised and running efficiently.
You’ll likely bring:

• Previous experience as a Legal Assistant in a law firm;

• Strong document formatting and typing skills;

• Excellent organisation and attention to detail;

• The ability to manage multiple tasks and deadlines;

• A proactive approach and confidence working independently; and

• Strong communication skills and a client-focused mindset.

The firm offers a supportive and collaborative environment where Legal Assistants are highly valued. It’s a great opportunity to join a respected team and continue building your career within a well-regarded firm.
