• Assisting with file opening/closing, scanning, filing, and document management
  
  
• Supporting fee-earners, predominantly within Residential Property and Private Client departments
  
  
• Ensuring the smooth day-to-day running of the office
  
  

Requirements:

• Proven experience in a similar reception/administration role, ideally within a professional services setting
  
  
• Ability to work independently and manage tasks without close supervision
  
  
• Strong organisational skills and excellent attention to detail
  
  
• A warm and professional manner with clients and colleagues alike
  
  
• Legal sector experience is advantageous but not essential
  
  

The Offer:

• Salary between £26,000 - £30,000, dependent on experience
