A local and well respected firm with town centre offices are seeking to add to what is an already established and successful Private Client Team which has grown steadily and raised its reputation substantially in the last few years attracting a broad range of clients.

The Private Client team are seeking to bring on board a new Legal Secretary/ Assistant to add to the existing support team working with qualified Partners, Solicitors and Legal Executives.

The team are looking for an individual with excellent organisational and typing competencies and good with figures along with great interpersonal skills and keen to interact with both clients and colleagues.

Proven working knowledge of Private Client matters such as administering estates, trusts, probate, wills and LPA and the associated procedural work will be viewed as highly desirable, although full training will be provided if you can illustrate a proven ability to learn and adapt with all of the key competencies of the role.

This is a great firm to work for with a very good reputation, friendly working environment and conveniently located centrally close to transport links, shops and cafes. They're close enough for a quick walk to the beach and an ice cream (weather dependent!).
