Full-time

Legal Assistant

Location: London

Salary: DUE

Salary band: Dependant upon experience

Contract type: Permanent

Date posted: 08/07/2026

The Responsibilities:

We are looking for a Legal Assistant to join our Family team in London full-time with 2 days WFH.

As a Legal Assistant, you will provide efficient and effective administrative support to the Family team, helping ensure the department operates smoothly and achieves its objectives. You will also be responsible for ensuring that work is completed in line with internal quality standards and external compliance requirements.

The Candidate:

Our client is specifically looking for candidates with strong administrative experience who are interested in building a long-term career in a support role.

That said, the client is happy to support progression into a Paralegal role in the future for the right person. The ideal candidate will enjoy administrative work, be highly organised, and be looking to develop within a legal support career.

Please note your application will not be considered if you have a law degree
