An exceptional opportunity has arisen for an experienced Executive Assistant to provide 1:1 support to a highly regarded senior Partner at one of the world's leading law firms. This is a rare and rewarding position, offering a close working relationship with an accomplished individual who sits on the firm's global leadership team.

The role requires a confident, discreet and commercially astute EA who enjoys working in a fast-paced, professional environment where high standards and attention to detail are key. You'll be part of a collaborative team of experienced Executive Assistants within the firm's largest global office.

You'll act as the Partner's trusted right hand, managing a broad range of business and personal matters. Responsibilities will include:

  • Complex diary management, meeting coordination and international travel arrangements

  • Preparation of documentation, presentations and client correspondence

  • Oversight of billing, expenses and time recording (including for fee earners in their absence)

  • Acting as a key liaison point between the Partner, clients, and internal stakeholders

  • Managing ad hoc personal tasks and property-related administration as needed

  • Supporting with matter openings, KYC processes, and internal reporting

This is a high-profile role within the firm, requiring professionalism, discretion and a proactive mindset.


About You

You will bring:

  • Significant Legal Executive Assistant experience within a legal environment

  • Strong billing, financial administration and time-recording experience (ideally using 3E, Chrome River or similar systems)

  • Excellent communication and organisational skills, with an ability to juggle multiple priorities

  • A collaborative, team-focused approach - someone who enjoys being part of a close-knit EA community
