Permanent | Full-time (35 hours per week)
Syme Drummond is delighted to be partnering with a leading Scottish law firm to recruit a Legal PA to join their busy Corporate & Commercial team.
This is a fast-paced role supporting up to 15 fee earners across different levels, so we’re looking for an experienced PA who is confident juggling competing priorities and supporting several stakeholders at once.
Previous legal experience is highly desirable, but not essential. We’re equally keen to hear from experienced PAs within professional services or fast-paced corporate environments who are accustomed to supporting multiple senior stakeholders.
