Job description
About the firm:
Our client is a national, full-service law firm with a strong reputation for creating a values-led culture and putting their people first. Based in the C.B.D. and operating from modern offices, you’ll have the opportunity to work in a well-respected firm on interesting legal work in a beautiful spot in the heart of Christchurch.
The Role:
Supporting a very busy property team, you’ll be the go-to star for all things across property and conveyancing as well as some private client work such as wills and EPAs. There is an interesting mix of work in this space across residential property, commercial, retail, industrial and more.
You’ll be supporting the team with client communication, document management (drafting letters, wills, EPAs, e-dealings), title searches, liaising with agents/banks, file management and billing as well as ensuring smooth workflows for residential and commercial property matters.
About You:
We are looking for a switched-on Legal Assistant with 5+ years of experience working in property and conveyancing to join the team. We need someone who wants to take ownership of their role, has great attention to detail and likes being a valued part of what makes the whole team succeed.
What’s On Offer:
This firm has a great reputation for taking good care of their people and creating a positive and social culture. They very much value the contribution that Legal Assistants make to the business and operate from an inclusive and non-hierarchical structure. Flexibility is on offer as well as social events and a positive team environment.
For a confidential chat about this opportunity, contact Liz Sloan on 027 211 6718 or send your CV to liz@colegal.co.nz. Alternatively, click APPLY now to submit your application.
Not quite the right role for you? I recruit for legal roles across the South Island, so if you're considering a move, let's talk.
