Job description

Legal Administrative Assistant – IREN

IREN is a vertically integrated AI Cloud provider, delivering large-scale data centers and GPU clusters for AI training and inference. IREN’s platform is underpinned by its expansive portfolio of grid-connected land and power in renewable-rich regions across North America, Europe and APAC.
With 100% renewable energy, we build, own and operate our data centers and take pride in being at the forefront of sustainable solutions for the ever-evolving applications of high-performance compute. We believe that human progress is invaluable, but it should be done in the right way – responsibly, sustainably and having a positive impact on the communities we operate in.

IREN is seeking a Legal Administrative Assistant to provide day-to-day administrative support to the Legal team, working closely with lawyers and business stakeholders to keep the team running smoothly. The main priority of the role is managing legal billing - processing invoices, purchase orders and service entry sheets in SAP, and coordinating monthly accrual requests - with a smaller amount of billing support for Risk & Compliance. Beyond billing, the role also provides broader administrative support across the Legal team, and occasionally other departments, as required.

Requirements

• 2–5 years' experience in an administrative or team support role, ideally within a legal or professional services environment, with some exposure to billing or accounts payable.
• Comfortable picking up new systems - experience with SAP or a similar ERP system is a plus, but not essential.
• Willingness to learn purchase-to-pay (P2P) processes, including purchase orders, service entry sheets, and invoice matching.
• Strong attention to detail and a high level of accuracy across both billing and general admin tasks.
• Ability to work collaboratively with multiple business units and stakeholders, including outside counsel.
• Strong organisational skills with the ability to juggle competing priorities and deadlines.
• Excellent written and verbal communication skills.
• Confident investigating and resolving discrepancies or queries as they come up.
• Proactive mindset with the ability to identify process improvements and efficiencies.
• Ability to work autonomously while also integrating effectively within a team.
• Strong time management skills and ability to adapt to changing priorities.
• Ability to maintain confidentiality and handle sensitive financial and legal information.
• Prior experience within a professional services environment
