  • Attending meetings and taking notes
  • Accountancy responsibilities
  • Conducting legal research
  • Completing due diligence
  • Digital dictation & typing as and when required
Training will be given on the above where needed.

This is an entry-level role and could suit a recent Law Degree and/or LPC graduate, ideally with at least 6 months experience working in the litigation team of a law firm. Alternatively, this could also suit an accomplished legal secretary looking for their next step up.

There will be future progression opportunities here for committed individuals looking to make their mark! This firm does fund other employees’ Ilex studies (after a 12-month qualifying period).
