Legal Assistant / Litigation Support / Legal Secretary / Litigation Assistant

£15.1 - £17.7 per hourEstimated
Full-time

Legal Assistant / Litigation Support / Legal Secretary / Litigation Assistant

Preston office | Full time, permanent, 35 hours, 5 days per week

Salary + bonus + benefits to balance your work life.

If your ideal lunch break involves a walk through the park rather than the hustle and bustle of a city centre, this could be the opportunity you've been looking for.

Based in our Preston office, just a stone's throw from Avenham and Miller Parks, you'll enjoy a welcoming office environment where collaboration, relationship-building and team spirit are part of everyday life.

This is a role for someone who genuinely enjoys being around people. Our lawyers are looking for a colleague who thrives in an office setting, values face-to-face interaction, and enjoys building strong relationships with both clients and colleagues.

What will you be doing?

Working closely with experienced litigation lawyers, helping to progress a varied caseload and ensuring clients receive an outstanding service.

Expect plenty of variety, including:

  • Collaborating directly with clients and professional contacts
  • Supporting lawyers with case progression and administration
  • Managing diaries and arranging meetings
  • Undertaking research and preparing documents
  • Handling client enquiries
  • Assisting with billing, compliance, and file management
  • Playing a key role in keeping the team organised and running smoothly.

Who are we looking for?

You do not necessarily need decades of experience, but you are someone who:

  • Enjoys collaborating with people and building relationships.
  • Is organised, proactive, and loves keeping things on track.
  • Communicates well
  • Takes pride in delivering great client service.
  • Enjoys being part of a team and contributing to the wider office community.

Experience within litigation would be a real advantage , particularly if you have worked as a Legal Assistant, Legal Secretary, or in a similar legal support role.

Why Napthens?

Because some jobs offer more than a desk. At Napthens, we are ambitious, friendly, and collaborative. Working with specialists from across the firm, build relationships throughout the office, and become part of a team that genuinely enjoys working together.

How to apply?

Apply today and tell us why you are suitable for the position and why you want to work for Napthens.

Close date: 18th August 2026

*NB* A note to agencies. Please do not send speculative CVs of any kind with regards to this role.
