Legal PA

Are you an experienced Personal Assistant looking for a meaningful, varied role in a boutique international law firm?

I’m working with a long-established and respected practice based in Holborn, looking for a proactive, warm, and highly organised PA to support both the Senior and Managing Partners.

About Us

We’re a close-knit, friendly team of 15 (11 lawyers and 4 support staff), working in a collaborative, respectful environment. Our firm is known for its international reach, creative approach to law, and culturally rich client base - including clients from South Asia, the Middle East, Africa, and beyond.

The Role

This is a unique and highly rewarding PA role, split between supporting our Senior Partner - a highly experienced and well-respected figure in the legal world - and our Managing Partner, who is hands-on with the firm’s legal work and strategy.

You’ll also work closely with our Office Coordinator to keep the office running smoothly, including answering phones, welcoming clients, and providing general admin support.

Here’s a breakdown of your key responsibilities:

Supporting the Senior Partner:

• Be his right hand while he's in the office (approx. 11am-4pm), helping to manage business correspondence and incoming opportunities
• Arrange personal appointments, liaise with household staff, manage properties, and occasionally accompany him to meetings
• Provide basic IT support (setting up meetings, documents, etc.)
• Be comfortable occasionally responding to WhatsApp messages outside hours

Supporting the Managing Partner:

• Proactively manage a busy diary, helping to prioritise tasks and commitments
• Act as a helpful gatekeeper, managing internal and external meeting requests
• Keep on top of firm-wide initiatives, events, and professional memberships
• This is a role for someone who thrives in a fast-paced environment, loves being the go-to person, and can confidently juggle multiple priorities and personalities.

About You

We’re looking for someone with a warm, professional approach who enjoys making things run smoothly behind the scenes.

You’ll ideally bring:

• 4+ years’ PA experience in a small/medium-sized business supporting senior leaders (both professionally and personally)
• A natural sense of responsibility, discretion and organisation
• A mild-mannered, calm demeanour and strong interpersonal skills
• Solid IT confidence - you won’t need to be tech support, but you should be comfortable troubleshooting basic issues
• Excellent communication skills, both spoken and written
• Ideally, familiarity with international or HNW clients, especially from South Asia, the Middle East, or Africa
• Bonus if you speak an additional language - especially a Slavic one
• You’ll be based in the heart of the office alongside the legal team, with a dynamic role that keeps you moving between the Senior and Managing Partner’s offices.
