The Role

Supporting our Head of Operations, you’ll play a key role in helping our offices and internal business processes run smoothly. From coordinating facilities requests to assisting with marketing activities, events and business improvement projects, this is a varied and rewarding role offering exposure to many different aspects of a growing legal practice.

We’re looking for someone with:

• Excellent organisational skills
• Strong communication abilities
• A proactive and positive attitude
• Previous administration or coordination experience (desirable)

In return, you’ll be joining a supportive team and a firm that values collaboration, continuous improvement and professional development.
