Legal PA - 12-Month FTC

Finance £46,000 Full-Time Hybrid (London)


I'm working exclusively on a brand-new opportunity with a top-tier international law firm, who are seeking a confident and proactive Legal PA to join their Finance team on a 12-month fixed-term contract. This role is to cover maternity leave, with a preferred start date over the summer to allow for a handover with the outgoing PA.


You'll be supporting a busy and well-established team comprising 3 Partners, 3 Senior Associates, 2 Associates, a Trainee, and a BD professional. The role is varied, fast-paced and EA-focused, with a strong emphasis on diary management, travel coordination, billing and client liaison.


This is a great chance to work at a firm known for its friendly and collaborative culture, international presence, and specialist expertise across key global sectors.


Key Responsibilities:

  • Full diary and inbox management for multiple fee earners, including complex scheduling across time zones
  • Organising meetings, client events, and international travel arrangements with detailed itineraries
  • Managing billing processes, expenses, and regular liaison with internal finance teams
  • Supporting BD and client relationship activities, including events, pitches, and updating CRM systems
  • Handling matter openings, compliance admin, and document preparation (with the help of a dedicated DP team)
  • Acting as the go-to support for wider team coordination and internal comms


What We're Looking For:

  • Previous experience as a Legal PA or EA in a professional services environment (legal sector preferred)
  • Confident diary manager with excellent organisational skills and attention to detail
  • Comfortable working with senior stakeholders and maintaining a high level of professionalism
  • Tech-savvy and confident using MS Office and legal-specific systems (e.g. InterAction, Carpe Diem)
  • Strong communication skills and a team-first attitude


The Offer:

  • Salary: £46,000 (non-negotiable)
  • 12-month contract with a structured handover period
  • Hybrid working: 3 days in the office / 2 from home
  • Based in central London - close to key transport links


This is an excellent opportunity to join a leading international law firm in a high-profile, people-focused role. If you're an experienced Legal PA looking for your next move, I'd love to hear from you.
