Ready to leave outdated legal support roles behind? This Legal Secretary opportunity is your step into a more modern, supportive, and rewarding legal career.

About the Company

This is not just another traditional law firm. It's a national, Legal 500-recognised organisation that's rewriting the rulebook on legal careers-where legal excellence meets employee wellbeing. Renowned for its commitment to sustainability, flexible working, and mental health support, this firm is setting a new standard across the legal industry.

With continued organic growth, it's now looking for a Legal Secretary to join the team in Spalding.

About the Role

This Legal Secretary position goes beyond the usual admin checklist. It's a critical role within a high-performing legal team where collaboration, respect, and progression are part of the everyday culture.

The successful Legal Secretary will provide top-tier support to solicitors and partners, contributing to the smooth and efficient delivery of legal services. From digital dictation to diary management, you'll ensure nothing falls through the cracks-while gaining exposure to a wide variety of legal work that will help you grow.

Key Responsibilities

  • Deliver high-quality secretarial and administrative support across multiple legal departments
  • Prepare, format and proofread legal correspondence and documentation
  • Manage diaries, coordinate meetings, and arrange travel/accommodation logistics
  • Liaise professionally with clients, courts, and external contacts
  • Maintain digital and physical case files, ensuring compliance and accuracy
  • Support fee earners with day-to-day operational needs

What They're Looking For

  • Proven experience as a Legal Secretary or legal admin professional
  • High-level organisational skills and strong attention to detail
  • Fast, accurate typing (minimum 65 wpm at 90% accuracy)
  • Confident with Microsoft Office and digital dictation tools
  • A proactive, can-do approach with the ability to work independently and as part of a team
  • Professionalism when handling confidential or sensitive client information
  • A basic understanding of legal processes and terminology is desirable

Why This Legal Secretary Role Stands Out

  • £30,000 salary (DOE)
  • Genuine work-life balance - flexible working patterns built around you
  • Private medical insurance, mental health support, and wellbeing apps
  • Modern IT systems and paper-lite processes
  • Structured career development - with internal progression pathways
  • Collaborative culture - no egos, no glass ceilings
  • Award-winning approach to ESG, diversity, and sustainability

Why Join This Firm?

This Legal Secretary role is for someone who wants to feel appreciated, supported, and challenged-in equal measure. You'll be joining a firm that values its people just as much as its clients and gives you the space to grow without sacrificing your work-life balance.

If you're a Legal Secretary looking to escape old-school environments and build a career where your role is respected, now is the time to make your move.

Apply today and join a firm that puts people first-every time.
