Administrative Assistant

A leading Manchester law firm, with a national and international presence, is searching for a skilled Administrative Assistant to join its busy team. This is to cover maternity leave.

The company is focussed on a large range of sectors, from charities and natural resources to construction and defence. As such, my client needs a hardworking business-support professional to help the firm deliver the highest quality of service.

In order to do well, you should be able to relate to people from all backgrounds, communicating clearly and effectively to help develop key relationships. You should also be driven, with the talents and imagination to meet any challenge.

While the role will initially be a sixth-month contract to help cover maternity, the experience gained would be invaluable to the budding admin assistant. This Manchester law firm is also very supportive of its staff, so you will be able to enhance your skills further.

Your day-to-day tasks will involve:

• Producing and compiling key documents
• Inputting information into the company CMS
• Developing file management systems
• Filing correspondence, deeds, and other documents
• Photocopying, scanning, and archiving
• Retrieving documents for colleagues
• Any other ad hoc admin duties

To be considered for this administration position, you should have:

• Solid IT skills, including MS Excel and Word
• Desirably, previous admin experience
• The desire to succeed
• An enthusiastic personality
• The ability to prioritise tasks
• Strong teamworking skills
• A methodical approach
