We are a growing law firm seeking a highly capable Office Manager to own the day-to-day management of our office. This role is ideal for someone who thrives on responsibility, executes with precision, and takes initiative without needing reminders.

- A strong sense of ownership and accountability
- Close attention to detail and consistent follow-through

- Ability to manage multiple priorities without dropping the ball
- Experience managing operations in a professional office (law firm, accounting firm, medical practice, or similar)
- Prior responsibility for supervising staff
- Experience handling budgets, vendors, or accounting coordination
- Experience tracking metrics, KPIs, or operational workflows
