🌟 Senior Legal PA/EA) - Commercial & Technology
📍 London (Hybrid: 3 days office / 2 days WFH)
💰 Up to £58,000 + Excellent Benefits
🕴 Supporting 1 Partner + 2 Senior Associates
Are you a confident, proactive Executive Assistant or Legal PA ready to step into a more strategic role? This is a rare opportunity to join a top-tier global law firm, supporting a high-performing team in their Commercial & Technology practice group.
You'll be working closely with one Partner and two experienced Senior Associates (who manage much of their own admin), while also acting as a vital conduit between the department's support team and its senior leadership.
🔍 The Role:
This isn't your average EA role. While you'll still be handling high-level executive support - from complex diary management to client liaison and inbox control - you'll also be the go-to person for broader team coordination, strategic admin projects, and internal communications.
Key responsibilities include:
Full ownership of partner-level support with minimal oversight
Managing client billing, engagement letters, WIP reviews, and financial tracking
Acting as a liaison between Team Assistants, PAs, and the department Manager
Supporting internal projects, recruitment, onboarding and team resourcing
Drafting internal comms, preparing reports and materials for meetings
Oversight of key operational functions for the department
✅ What We're Looking For:
We're seeking a calm, confident professional who thrives under pressure and takes initiative. You'll be trusted to run with tasks, drive efficiency, and be a natural point of contact within the team.
You should have:
Experience supporting senior stakeholders in a legal or professional services firm
Strong organisational and communication skills
A keen eye for detail and the confidence to make independent decisions
Ideally, experience in Commercial, Technology or IP/Trademarks law - though this is not essential
🌐 Why This Role?
Hybrid flexibility (3:2 office/home)
High visibility within a prestigious department
Opportunity to be involved in the strategic running of a legal team
Supportive, high-performing culture that rewards initiative
This is the perfect next step for an experienced Legal EA, PA or Practice Executive ready for more strategic responsibility in a fast-paced, prestigious environment.
