About Our Client

A Birmingham city centre law firm.

Job Description

This is a fast-paced and challenging Paralegal role, providing support to a busy Litigation team. The team is ideally looking for someone with experience as a Paralegal in a large law firm, who is used to dealing with tight deadlines, high volumes of work, and challenging clients.

The work is of very good quality, so you will get exposure to excellent Litigation work.

The role involves a combination of administrative and Paralegal tasks - providing support on a large project. This will include responding to multiple enquiries from clients and drafting legal documents.

This position would suit someone looking for a challenging Paralegal role. The team often has to pull together to meet tight deadlines, so it's not always a 9-5 job.

The firm works in a hybrid manner, so once you have settled in and gotten up to speed, there will be the opportunity to work from home 1-2 days a week.

This is a Paralegal role rather than a position leading to a training contract. However, the firm does have trainees, so it could be a long-term option for a quality Paralegal who has proven themselves in the role.

The Successful Applicant

Ideally, you will have at least 6-12 months in a contentious full-time fee-earning Paralegal role in the UK.
