The role You’ll be a trusted expert within the DPC, delivering a responsive, high-quality document production service in a deadline-driven legal environment. Quality, consistency and client service sit at the heart of everything you do.

You’ll also be a guardian of the firm’s brand, house styles and templates — the calm hand making sure everything that leaves the building looks exactly as it should.

• Confidence liaising with senior stakeholders, including partners
• A genuine team mindset and a desire to keep learning

Hours Core hours: Wednesday to Friday, 9.30am – 5.30pm
