Executive Assistant

Ever wondered what it’s like to run the diary of someone who’s simultaneously billing serious fee-earning hours and sitting on a law firm’s top leadership team? This is that job.

A top international law firm is hiring an Executive Assistant to Senior Partner on a 12-14 month FTC in London, providing 1:1 support to a Senior Partner who’s a key figure on the Senior Leadership Team - and who still spends at least half their time on fee-earning work for high-profile private clients.

You’ll be the person who makes their week actually work. Think:

• Diary and inbox management across time zones, often planned a year ahead
• Coordinating internal and client meetings, from agendas to minutes to follow-up
• Booking complex international travel with real forward planning
• Screening calls and filtering communications with tact and discretion
• Liaising directly with senior clients and their representatives
• Supporting the monthly billing process alongside Revenue Control
• Working alongside a close-knit team of fellow Executive Assistants across the leadership team

You’ll need previous experience supporting at partnership level (ideally in a law firm), sharp organisation, strong Microsoft Office skills, and the discretion that comes with handling confidential, high-profile client relationships. Financial or commercial exposure and familiarity with iManage would be a bonus, not a must.

If you thrive on being the calm, capable centre of a demanding senior role, this one’s worth a conversation.
