Why this role?

• Work directly with senior leadership with true visibility and influence.
• Be part of a fast‑growing, award‑winning law firm with a bold vision.
• Career progression opportunities as the firm continues to scale.
• A role that blends people, process, and culture, every day will feel different.
• A genuinely supportive, collaborative, and fun environment, enjoyment is one of our core values.

What we're looking for
