Apply NowI am currently recruiting for a well established Law firm who is recruiting a Legal secretary for their busy, growing construction team, advising on both contentious and non‑contentious construction matters. Working with contractors, developers, landowners and other professional advisers, the team supports clients in putting the right contractual structures in place and provides strategic advice as disputes arise, including representation in Court proceedings, adjudication and mediation.
As the full time Legal Secretary, you will provide efficient secretarial and administrative support to the fee earners, including liaising with clients, audio typing, document production, and file and diary management. You will also provide limited support with compliance and billing processes, working alongside another Legal Secretary who leads on these areas.

The ideal candidate will have prior experience supporting a legal team (ideally within construction, property or litigation), be IT‑literate with a strong working knowledge of Microsoft Office, and confident using modern document management systems. A positive, friendly, and proactive approach is essential.
Please appy today if this role sounds of interest, offering excellent benefits and competitive salary within a friendly and supportive team
