Why This Role Stands Out:

• 5+ years’ experience supporting litigation required
• 2 days WFH– rare flexibility at this level of salary
• Long-term stability– the Partner had the same secretary for 20 years
• Paid, approved overtime– get compensated for your extra efforts
• Career progression opportunitiesin a firm known for valuing its Legal Secretaries

  
The Opportunity:

We’re partnering with a highly respected mid-tier law firm in Sydney’s CBD, known for its supportive and inclusive culture. In this role, you'll support a Senior Partner in the Government Litigation team, managing a dynamic and high-stakes practice.

What makes this role special? The Partner you’ll be supporting is known for offering autonomy—he trusts his Legal Secretary to take charge, so if you’re someone who thrives on independence and self-direction, this is perfect for you.

Additionally, two days of work from home per week at this level is a rare find in the current market where WFH perks are slowly being reigned in.

Key Responsibilities:

• Managing complex billing processes and overseeing monthly costs
• End-to-end file management and liaising with external parties
• Calendar and inbox management for a Senior Partner
• Preparing court bundles, briefs, and electronic filing of court documents
• Organising travel and managing expenses
• Providing general administrative support to ensure the smooth running of the practice

About You:

You’ll need at least 5+ years of experience as a Legal Secretary in Commercial or Insurance Litigation.  Your ability to manage busy diaries, juggle competing priorities, and take the initiative will be key to your success in this role. Experience with Aderant (or similar billing software) is also a plus.

If you’re someone who values longevity in your roles, this Partner appreciates that—his last secretary stayed with him for 20 years. You'll have the chance to step into a role where your contributions are truly valued and where you can settle in for the long term.

What We’re Looking For:

• Extensive experience (5+ years) in Commercial Litigation
• Strong billing and file management skills
• Proactive, autonomous, and capable of working independently
• Exceptional organisational and communication abilities
• Longevity in previous roles is highly regarded
• Full working rights in Australia
