About You
  • Previous experience as a Legal Secretary or Paralegal within a litigation-focused environment

  • Strong organisational skills with the ability to manage multiple tasks and deadlines effectively

  • Confident with administrative duties including document production, inbox management, and filing systems

  • Experience supporting trade mark attorneys is welcomed, provided you also have exposure to litigation work and court processes

  • Excellent attention to detail, communication skills, and overall IT proficiency

If you are looking for your next opportunity within a supportive and professional firm, please apply now or contact Megan for more information.
