Job Title: Legal Secretary / PA to VP of the Company
Location: Central London office, with hybrid/remote flexibility
Salary: £45,000–£52,000, dependent on experience
Type: Full-time, permanent
About The Role
A private company is seeking an experienced, highly organised Legal Secretary/PA to support its VP directly. This is a varied, fast-paced role supporting a busy, spontaneous principal on exciting, ever-changing projects, no two days look the same. Working patterns vary day to day: some days based in a Central London office, others working from home, with travel required at times.
This role sits at the centre of the VP's day-to-day operations. You'll be trusted to manage competing priorities, keep information flowing smoothly, and bring order and structure to a naturally fast-moving working environment.
