Your new company
Highly reputable and growing organisation, based in Worsley, with an excellent track record for providing training, seminars, webinars and course materials across the professional services sector, including accountancy and law firms. A legal research vacancy has arisen, for a confident, driven and inquisitive individual, to help support new products into the sector.

Your new role
You will work in a varied role where you will primarily be responsible for providing research, keeping up to date with legislative change and providing input into new products. The products support the learning and development of legal and accountancy professionals and as part of your role, you will be involved in liaising directly with industry experts, including barristers and senior solicitors, to arrange and co-ordinate seminars.

What you'll need to succeed

Ideally, you will have gained legal experience either as a paralegal in private practice, as a legal assistant working in industry or from a recent LPC or law degree. This role could suit someone looking for a change from practice or even a keen law graduate with an aptitude for research and building positive relationships.

What you'll get in return
This is an opportunity to apply your legal knowledge in a commercial environment, working for a growing training organisation providing legal updates and courses to the professional services market.
