Office Assistant jobs in Brazil

McEwan Fraser Legal, an award-winning Solicitor and Estate Agency, is a dynamic, modern company. With an array of respected industry awards under our belt, we are highly innovative and known for our emphasis on providing exceptional customer service. We deal with residential and commercial property sales as well as having a robust legal department specialising in conveyancing, private client, family law and litigation.

Due to the demands of the business, we require professional, motivated Legal Assistants to join the Legal team in our Edinburgh Head Office. We are not your typical Solicitors & Estate Agents as we do everything in-house to ensure we have specialists to advise clients during every step of their journey. You will be joining a varied team of over 150 in-house experts who all share the same passion for client care.

Experienced administrators with a genuine interest in taking on the challenge of helping the department run as efficiently as possible will be considered. Previous experience and knowledge of conveyancing work within the Scottish Legal system is desirable.
