Job description: Secretarial Support
We a looking for additional support staff in the following departments:
1) Commercial Property
2) Residential Property
Do you possess excellent communication, IT, and customer service skills and enjoy working within a team environment? If so, you could be just the person we are looking for to join our 29 hour, 4-day a week SR support team.
Due to internal staff progression, we require an 2 additional Legal Assistants – one in our Commercial Property team and the other in our Residential Property team. Our Legal Assistants are instrumental when it comes to client service by taking varied client enquiries, making appointments as required and ensuring that we deliver the best experience to our clients – something we all pride ourselves on. As a valued member of our admin support team, each Assistant will deal with the administrative aspects of property sales, purchases and transfers, from start to finish, for the relevant property team.
Effective admin support ensures that our Solicitors and Paralegals can progress their client matters from file openings through to completion and closure. Work is frequently progressed through Diktamen dictations combined with general file management, legal compliance, and working efficiently within our Leap case management system – all of which can be learnt on the job.
With a willingness to learn, we hope that the right candidate for each dedicated team can bring their accurate typing skills, amazing attention to detail, and a high standard of grammar, spelling, and punctuation with them. Having a sense of humour, being a multi-tasker and able to work to deadlines would be the icing on the cake!
Do you have previous legal experience that you could bring to this role, or perhaps you would like to make a complete change from your current non-legal position? Either way, we will provide ongoing SR training to the successful candidates.
If you feel either of these roles could be right for you, please forward an up-to-date CV with a covering letter confirming which role you are applying for. If possible, please include a short summary about yourself and what you feel we could offer you as an SR employee. Send all of this to Lindsey McIntyre, HR Manager (lm@scottrichards.co.uk).
If you have any questions about the role, please do give Lindsey a call on 01626 772441.
