Southampton | Part time | Permanent | Office based

RecQuest is recruiting a Legal Secretary for the Family department of an award winning Hampshire law firm, on a permanent part time basis.

Genuine part time legal secretarial roles are rare, and permanent part time roles in family law are rarer still. If you have family law support experience and need hours that work around something else, this is worth a proper look.

The role

• Providing secretarial support to fee earners across a family law caseload

• Preparing correspondence, court documents and client paperwork

• Diary management, appointments and hearing dates

• Client contact by telephone and email, handled sensitively

• Maintaining files and case management records accurately

About you

• Legal secretarial experience, ideally within family law

• Accurate typing and strong document handling skills

• Discreet and calm with clients who are often in difficult circumstances

• Organised, reliable and able to prioritise in a busy department

Why this is worth a conversation

Part time is often treated as a compromise. Here it is a permanent, properly resourced position within an established department at a firm with a strong reputation for how it treats its people.

Every enquiry is confidential. Apply through RecQuest or email info@recquest.co.uk to discuss the hours and the role.
