Market leading US law firm based between Liverpool Street and Fenchurch Street Stations has an opening to work as Secretary/Assistant to the London Office Manager. You will offer full support, dealing with all secretarial work, diary management, International travel arrangements and assist with any office projects. You will also act as Secretarial Coordinator, dealing with the day to day requirements of cover for late/sick/annual leave as well as liaising with agencies for temporary cover and, when required, permanent recruitment. You will also coordinate interviews between the Lawyers/Office Manager and candidates. There will be some HR admin to deal with so you will be in charge of all employee benefits, the employee annual leave chart and keep track of all staff overtime hours worked. There is an International remit too as you will liaise with the US Events Manager when events are being organised in London (which will include you attending some social events). With the firm employing some US Lawyers in London, you will be in charge of keeping all Immigration records up to date, including Visa expiry dates and looking after all visiting Lawyers ensuring seating, secretarial allocation, laptop and a car/driver. To be considered for the position, you will be an experienced Secretary/Administrator with a similar background gained from a City law firm or professional services environment (Investment Bank, Accountancy or Insurance firm) and used to performing an efficient and accurate service, sometimes with little or no supervision. To be clear from the outset, this is not an HR position and nor will it lead to being an HR position.
