Are you an experienced Legal Secretary looking for a stable, long-term support role within a friendly law firm?
A well-established, multi-service and multi-office law firm is looking for a Legal Secretary to join its Southsea office, primarily supporting the residential conveyancing department. You may also be required to assist other departments with secretarial duties when needed.

• Preparing correspondence and legal documents
• Opening, maintaining and closing files
• Managing diaries and arranging appointments
• Liaising with clients, solicitors and other third parties
• Providing administrative and secretarial support

Previous experience as a Legal Secretary is essential, ideally within residential conveyancing or property law. You should have strong typing, administration and communication skills, with the ability to manage a varied workload.

Please note that this is a Legal Secretary position rather than a Paralegal or fee-earning role. It would best suit someone who is happy to remain in a valued support position and is not specifically seeking progression into managing their own caseload.

• 20 days' annual leave plus bank holidays
• Christmas and New Year closure provided as additional gifted annual leave
• Parking permit provided where on-site parking is unavailable
• Sage Benefits access after probation, including retail discounts and GP access
