Eximius is once again working with a top flight city practice in central London. Our client is on the lookout for two experienced paralegals to join a growing and market leading Dispute Resolution and Litigation team on an initial contractual basis but with the sight to extend if successful.
The role is a hybrid position that requires paralegals who ideally have their LPC or BPTC completed with good grades and who are interested in working closely within a streamlined team of professionals. The position does have a small element of PA work involved due to the fact that you will be learning and working directly alongside recognised Associates and Partners of the firm on a daily basis. However, the client has stressed that 70% of the work will be top flight litigation paralegal work.
The generic duties of this position are as follows:
- Handling a caseload of matters,
- Transcribing audio dictations,
- File opening and closing,
- Knowledge Management,
- Maintaining client details,
- Providing general administrative duties
This is of course not an exhaustive list but should give you a small taste for the role with this long established and pristine firm. The work life balance is good and the firm prides itself on its high profile clients and commercial work. This is a great opportunity to learn from some of the best in the market and work with a top tier city practice.
Candidates applying will ideally have:
- LPC or BPTC completed
- Prior 6 months experience (minimum) in a commercial environment (ideally Legal 500 upwards)
- Experience handling their own caseload,
- Availability to start in less than 2 weeks’ notice.
