With plans to add five additional solicitors this year, this is an excellent opportunity to join a fast-paced environment where you'll play a key role in keeping operations running smoothly.

The Role

This is a varied, hands-on position supporting both the legal team and wider management function. You'll act as a central point of coordination, ensuring administrative processes run efficiently and clients receive a high standard of service.

• Providing cover for colleagues during annual leave (e.g. managing enquiries and workflow)
• Identifying and escalating any client or process issues to the relevant team members

Working Pattern

• Hybrid working: Two set days a week in the Leeds office, plus one additional floating day once a month to fit around accounts (aligned with billing cycles, typically at the start of the month)

About You

• Previous administration experience (legal experience is a bonus but not essential)
• Highly organised with strong attention to detail
• Comfortable working in a fast-paced environment, particularly during busy periods
• Able to manage fluctuating workloads (busy at the start of the month, quieter towards the end)
• Confident communicator with a professional approach to client interaction
• Proactive, adaptable, and a strong team player

What's on Offer

• Salary up to £27,000
• Full training and ongoing support
• Opportunity to grow with a rapidly expanding legal team
• Varied role with exposure to both legal and operational functions
