Junior Legal Secretary
Location: Central London
Salary: £27,000
Skills and experience: Six months’ experience as a legal secretary, the CILEx level 2 or 3 (or equivalent secretarial qualification) and a typing speed of 60 wpm
New role!
A rare opportunity for a legal secretary with only 6 months’ experience to join a top London law firm based close to Kings Cross / Euston so ideal for a candidate who commutes into those stations. This is a busy role and so it is essential that you have excellent secretarial skills including a typing speed of at least 60 wpm. The team deals with litigation but they are happy to see a legal secretary with a background in any area of law.
Although you will be fully trained on all internal systems and databases, you must have excellent general IT skills and a good understanding of Microsoft Word and Excel. It is also essential that you have at least six months’ experience as a legal secretary / trainee legal secretary (in any area of law), a flexible and proactive approach to your work, strong organisational and timekeeping skills and, most importantly, excellent communication skills. The CILEx level 2 or 3 (or equivalent secretarial qualification) would also be ideal.
Fantastic working environment, very friendly team and a top role!
