About the job
Salary: £23,656 - £25,992 a year pro rata
Hours per week: 14.8
Contract type: Fixed Termuntil 01/12/2025
This position is available as a secondment opportunity until 01/12/2025. If you are a permanent LBC employee, you must have written approval (an email will suffice) from your manager prior to applying and a copy will need to be submitted with your application. Please note: we will not be able to proceed with your application form without your manager's permission.
Are you looking for a role where your keen eye for detail and excellent organisational skills can shine? We're looking for a Secretarial Assistant to join our busy and friendly team. In this role, you'll be working with a variety of documents, preparing and scanning files, and ensuring everything runs smoothly behind the scenes. You'll also be part of a supportive team that works closely with customers and colleagues to keep our legal office running efficiently.
You'll need to be comfortable with word processing and general PC use, and if you've had some experience in an office or legal environment before, even better! We're looking for someone who can work methodically, stay accurate under pressure, and handle multiple tasks with confidence. If you enjoy working with people and can communicate clearly and professionally, you'll fit right in.
Please note this role does not attract sponsorship.
About you
You're someone who takes pride in getting things right the first time. Data entry, word processing, and handling important documents with care are second nature to you. You're confident on the phone, able to deal with a wide range of people politely and tactfully, and you can manage competing priorities with ease.
You'll be proactive and able to work independently within clear procedures, but you're also a great team player. If you've got a Level 2 Business Administration qualification or equivalent experience, that's a big plus. An understanding of local land charges practices and procedures would be useful, but if not, don't worry - as long as you're willing to learn, we'll support you. As part of your role, you'll need to retrieve and handle files and paperwork regularly, so a level of physical ability is required.
This is a public facing role so you'll need to show off your fluency in speaking and writing English
