You will provide day-to-day administrative support to a Partner and several senior lawyers, helping manage diaries, court dates, schedules, documents and general office requirements.

• Strong attention to detail and accuracy.
• Confidence using Microsoft Office and learning new systems.
• A practical, positive and genuinely helpful approach.
• The willingness to assist with both complex and routine office tasks.
• A team-focused mindset and strong work ethic.

Extensive legal experience is not essential. Training will be provided on legal processes and systems for the right person.

What the Firm Values

Attitude and team fit are central to this appointment.

The successful candidate will be someone who:

• Is willing to help wherever needed.
• Treats all tasks as important to the effective operation of the office.
• Is comfortable answering phones and assisting with reception.
• Takes ownership of their work and follows through on commitments.
• Builds trust through reliability, good judgement and consistency.
• Contributes positively to a small, close-working team.

Working Arrangements

• Permanent full-time position.
• Canberra office-based role.
• Standard hours are 8:30am to 5:00pm.
• This role does not offer work-from-home arrangements.
• Some flexibility around working hours may be considered over time once trust and consistency have been established.
• A three-month probation period will apply.

Salary Package

The target salary is approximately $80,000 + superannuation.

Some flexibility may be available for a particularly strong candidate with directly relevant experience.

Why Consider This Role?

This is a good opportunity for an experienced administrator who wants to build a long-term career in a professional legal environment.

You will work closely with experienced legal professionals, receive support to develop your legal administration knowledge and become an important part of the Canberra office.

The role may also suit someone earlier in their administration career who has already gained solid workplace experience and is ready to take the next step.

Application Process

Please submit:

• Your current resume.
• A short summary of your relevant administration, diary management or legal support experience.
