This is an excellent opportunity to build a strong foundation in personal injury law, with ongoing mentorship, guidance, and development from an experienced and supportive team.

This role is designed for someone who is committed to developing into a career paralegal. As we are investing in long-term training and development, this position is not suitable for law students.

General administrative and clerical support to the solicitor and wider team
You will receive continuous training, supervision, and mentorship to help you develop the skills and confidence required to succeed as a professional paralegal.

Ideally, you will have:

Previous experience in an administrative or office assistant role
Strong Microsoft Office skills (Word, Excel, PowerPoint)
Excellent attention to detail and strong organisational skills
Clear written and verbal communication skills
A proactive, can-do attitude and willingness to learn
A genuine interest in building a long-term career as a paralegal
No prior legal experience is required, although it will be considered an advantage.
