  • Fully remote work with occasional travel to the office in Manchester

  • Highly respected family law boutique

  • Great progression - potential future training contract

  • Generous annual leave plus your birthday off

Are you an organised and meticulous individual looking to thrive in a collaborative and hardworking environment? Our client, a highly respected family law boutique in Manchester, renowned for its international acumen and supportive culture, is seeking a Family Legal Assistant to join their team.

In return for your dedication, you'll be welcomed into a firm where flexible working is genuinely practised, offering the rare chance to provide support on a variety of private, high-net-worth family cases with a significant international flavour.

The role of a Family Legal Assistant is pivotal within our client's firm. You will become the personal assistant to the managing director, a high-profile figure in the legal industry, while also managing initial inquiry calls and planning the fee earners’ diaries. Your commitment to superior client care and capability to effectively multitask and organise will not only contribute to the company's success but will also set you on a clear path to personal career progression.

To succeed, you'll need excellent IT skills, especially in Word, Excel, and Outlook, and whilst experience with case management software like LEAP is advantageous, it is not essential. Your aptitude for communication, passion for client care, and proactive approach are key.

Our client offers a vibrant work environment that encourages professional growth. Alongside a competitive salary, you'll benefit from remote working flexibility, a potential training contract in the future, and a supportive career pathway.

The firm you’ll be joining is renowned for its exceptional expertise in international family law. With a growing business and a strong presence in the Middle East, it maintains a supportive, collaborative culture, ensuring that every team member is both a contributor and beneficiary of its success.

If you're seeking an opportunity to work remotely while occasionally stepping into a modern Manchester city centre office, with a company that's dedicated to your personal and professional growth, this could be the perfect fit for you.
