Be the go-to person for a dynamic legal team where your impact truly matters.
Enjoy flexibility, autonomy, and a culture that values your contribution.
Join a leading law firm that champions growth, innovation, and work-life balance

Join the best. Be yourself.
“Being the best isn’t just about being the best professionals. It’s about being the best place to work, grow, be yourself.”

Legal Secretaries at WK
We do things differently here. Our Legal Secretaries are valued members of the team, playing an integral role in practice management. You’ll have the opportunity to take ownership of key processes, manage your Partner’s practice, and delegate tasks to paralegals to ensure smooth workflow. With a flexible working model (2-3 days in the office, the rest from home), you’ll enjoy a balance of autonomy and collaboration while being actively involved in the team’s success.

About the role
Join our busy and collaborative General Liability team as a Legal Secretary, where no two days are the same. You'll play a key role in keeping matters moving by managing documents, supporting legal processes, and ensuring everything runs smoothly behind the scenes. If you're organised, proactive, and love keeping things in order, this could be your perfect fit.

In this role, you'll:

Take charge of document management, filing, formatting, labelling, and preparing legal materials with precision
Draft, finalise and file court documents, client letters, and audit responses
Help drive smooth billing processes, prepare invoices, handle queries, and keep financial records up to date
Run conflict checks, manage trust forms, and coordinate key deadlines and court timelines
Support lawyers with day-to-day admin, from diary management and expense processing to setting up expert calls and managing client updates
Keep client and matter details accurate and current using our legal systems

What you bring

Intermediate to senior-level experience as a Legal Secretary or in a similar role. Experience in insurance or litigation is highly regarded.
Highly responsive and proactive approach to work. You’ll often need to act quickly and anticipate needs without waiting for direction
Strong organisational and time-management skills to keep a busy but manageable practice running smoothly
Excellent attention to detail and ability to take initiative
Familiarity with legal billing processes and systems
Proficiency in MS Office suite and legal software applications such as iManage.
