Personal Assistant | Senior Partners | Commercial Law | Sydney CBD An excellent opportunity has arisen for an experienced Legal Personal Assistant to join a highly regarded commercial law firm in the heart of Sydney CBD, supporting a group of senior Partners who have been established and highly respected within the firm for more than a decade.
This is an important and highly trusted role for someone who enjoys being the person behind the scenes who keeps everything running smoothly.
You will work closely with the Partners as their true right hand, providing high-level support across their busy practices and becoming an integral part of their day-to-day operations.
These are Partners who value the importance of having a strong, capable and reliable PA beside them. You will be trusted to take ownership, use your initiative and anticipate what is required, rather than simply waiting to be told what to do.
Your responsibilities will include a broad range of traditional PA duties, including:
- Providing high-level, proactive PA support to senior Partners
- Managing busy and complex diaries, meetings, appointments and priorities
- Taking ownership of end-of-month billing, including coordinating billing processes, reviewing matters and ensuring invoices are issued accurately and on time.
- Assisting with client and matter administration
- Preparing, formatting and proofreading correspondence and legal documentation
- Managing emails, correspondence and follow-ups on behalf of the Partners
- Liaising professionally with clients, colleagues and key stakeholders
- Keeping the Partners organised and ensuring important deadlines and commitments are met
This is an opportunity to work alongside senior, established Partners who genuinely value their support team.
You will have the prospect to build strong working relationships and become someone the Partners rely on and trust implicitly. The successful person will be highly respected for their contribution and will have real ownership over their role. You will be given the autonomy to manage your responsibilities, make decisions within your remit and develop a strong understanding of the Partners, their clients and their practices.
This would suit an experienced legal PA who takes pride in being organised, discreet and dependable, and who enjoys working in a role where no two days are exactly the same. You will be someone who naturally thinks ahead, is comfortable managing competing priorities and understands the importance of being one step ahead of busy senior stakeholders.
You will ideally have previous experience as a Legal PA, Executive Assistant or Personal Assistant within a professional services or legal environment. Strong organisational skills, attention to detail and the ability to work with discretion are essential.
You will also bring
- Excellent communication and interpersonal skills
- Strong attention to detail and accuracy
- The ability to manage multiple priorities calmly and efficiently
- A proactive, solutions-focused approach
- Confidence working with senior stakeholders and clients
- A strong understanding of the importance of confidentiality and discretion
If you are looking for a role where you can make a genuine impact, be trusted to take ownership and become an invaluable right hand to a group of highly established Partners, this is an excellent opportunity to join a respected commercial law environment in Sydney CBD.
