Legal Assistant

Permanent / Full Time

Join a national firm as a Legal Secretary in Adelaide. Support high-performing fee earners on engaging matters with real career growth.

  • Up to $95,000 package
  • National level support, resources and network
  • TWO opportunities up for grabs!
MJD Recruitment are thrilled to be working with a prestigious national firm that are admired in the industry for their professionalism, work balance and family comes first attitude - as well as excelling in client services.

The firm has proven to hold its employees in high regard, offering consistent ongoing training and development on a national scale, benefits (such as gym memberships and flexibility), and promoting informal social events to retain their friendly and easy-going team dynamic.

This is a sought-after place to work for, with an incredible role that will see you nationally networking, making long-lasting connections and being a valued member of a busy Disputes OR Corporate team!

This role is above and beyond other legal support roles:

It’s a true partnership, non-hierarchical style of working. Working for a delightful team consisting of Partners, Special Counsels and Senior Associates, this is a role that will certainly keep you busy both from a secretarial and an workflow point of view!

The day to day will consist of complex diary management, corporate client liaising, drafting and preparing legal documents, billing, organising meetings, etc. the role also encompasses interesting review work and confidential document matters for some HUGE players in big industries!

You will have an eye for detail and an ability to look outside the box to "make things happen". The team will be remarkably supportive of you and your career promoting your development and helping you push from strength to strength.

To be a superstar in this role you will need to demonstrate:
  • At least 12+ months experience in a mid-large firm.
  • Dispute Resolution or Corporate experience would be highly advantageous but not necessary.
  • You will have a warm and friendly demeanour and the ability to build strong relationships.
  • As this role is largely client-facing, you will have immaculate presentation and be detailed orientated, with a keen interest in improving processes.
