Job description

Executive Assistant - Tax | £62,500 | Hybrid 4:1 | London (City)

Love fast-paced environments, high-level work, and a dash of New York energy?

We've just taken on an incredible opportunity with a leading US law firm whose London office is known for its sophistication, global reach, and buzz. This role will see you supporting at Partner level within the Tax department - one of the firm's most prestigious and intellectually stimulating teams.

Why you'll love this firm

The London office sits high above the City skyline in one of its most iconic buildings - a true reflection of the firm's international calibre and forward-thinking approach. Despite its global prestige, the culture is friendly, team-focused, and refreshingly human. Expect recognition for your hard work, genuine support from your colleagues, and plenty of opportunity to shine.

What's on offer

• Salary up to £62,500
• Hybrid working - 4:1 (four days in the office, one from home)
• Exposure to high-value, cross-border work with world-class professionals
• A culture that combines global prestige with people-first values

Why the Tax team?

This team is at the centre of some of the most complex, high-profile international transactions, working with global corporations, financial institutions, and private equity giants. For a Legal EA, that means intellectually engaging work, constant variety, and the chance to support lawyers who are leaders in their field.

What you'll be doing

• Providing comprehensive EA support to a Partner & other Fee Earners
• Managing diaries, inboxes, meetings, and travel across time zones
• Drafting and formatting confidential legal and business documents
• Acting as a key liaison between clients, fee earners, and internal teams
• Taking ownership of administrative processes, ensuring everything runs seamlessly

This is not your average EA role-it's a front-row seat to some of the most significant deals in the world. If you thrive under pressure, love being the go-to person, and want to work somewhere that genuinely values its EAs as business partners, this could be your perfect next step.
