IN ORDER TO BE CONSIDERED FOR THIS LIVE ROLE YOU MUST INCLUDE A FULL COVERING LETTER STATING WHY YOU FEEL YOU ARE SUITABLE FOR THE POST. 

Our Client, a law firm in Portsmouth is looking for an entry level legal administrator to join their litigation team. The role will focus on assisting the team and will involve general administrative tasks including filing, the preparation of bundles of documents for court hearings, daily post and photocopying.  Dealing with colleagues on the telephone is key - clarity and a mature approach are essential.  Candidates must be confident, organised and numerate but previous legal experience is not essential.

You must have a demonstrable track record of remaining calm and efficient under pressure within an office environment and full training for this role will be given.
