We're Hiring - Legal Secretary Required!

We have an opportunity for a Legal Secretary to join our Family Department.

 

Please note, this vacancy is for a legal secretary, not a paralegal, legal executive or solicitor.


The role is to be based at our Wakefield office, and we are looking for candidates to join on a full-time basis (Monday-Friday), for immediate start. Hybrid working may be available on request.

 

The role will require (but not be limited to) the following:

 

  • Ability to type, draft and produce documents efficiently;
  • Experience using Case Management software;
  • Competent IT skills and working knowledge of Microsoft Word and Outlook;
  • Communication skills both written and verbal;
  • Initiative to learn and ability to self-motivate;
  • Experience of working under pressure to tight deadlines with the ability to remain calm;
  • Ability to prioritise and multitask effectively, with good time management and organisational skills; and
  • The ability to demonstrate discretion and maintain absolute confidentiality.

 

We offer a competitive package dependent on experience, and a working environment that values and cares for its team members. We have held the Law Society’s LEXCEL accreditation for a number of years and strive to make the client and team experience the best that it can be.

 

Please send your CV and covering letter by email to paulrollinson@jwpsolicitors.co.uk
