A highly regarded law firm in Essex is looking for an experienced Legal Secretary to become a key part of its thriving Residential Conveyancing department. With deep roots in the local community and a reputation built on long-standing client relationships, this firm combines tradition with a modern, client-focused approach.
This isn't just a back-office role - you'll be at the heart of the action. Supporting busy fee earners, you'll help drive property transactions forward from initial instruction to completion. Your day-to-day will include preparing contracts and legal documents, drafting correspondence, coordinating diaries, liaising with clients and third parties, and ensuring files are meticulously managed. Your organisation and efficiency will directly contribute to smooth, successful completions.
The team is seeking a confident and capable conveyancing secretary with at least two years' relevant experience. You'll need strong administrative skills, excellent attention to detail, and the ability to remain calm and organised in a fast-paced environment. A proactive mindset and the confidence to manage responsibilities independently are essential.
In return, you'll join a supportive and established firm that truly values its staff. Alongside a competitive salary, you can expect clear opportunities for progression, pension contributions, and a generous holiday allowance - all within a stable and friendly working culture.
