PARALEGAL POSITION

 

Location: Gerrards Cross

 

We’re working with a well-established legal practice that’s looking to bring a capable Paralegal into their team. This is a role for someone who enjoys being close to the detail, takes pride in doing things properly, and wants to build a solid career within a professional but approachable legal environment.

About the role

 

This position sits at the heart of the legal team, supporting fee earners with the smooth running of cases from instruction through to completion. You’ll be involved in preparing documents, liaising with clients, and keeping files accurate and up to date. It’s a varied role that requires organisation, confidence in handling legal paperwork, and the ability to manage multiple priorities without cutting corners.

You’ll be trusted with responsibility early on, with the support you need to do the job well rather than being micromanaged.
