About the Role

A Legal Receptionist plays a key role in creating a welcoming first impression while keeping the office running smoothly through excellent client service and administrative support.

What's on Offer?

  • Friendly and supportive team environment
  • Well-established law firm with an excellent local reputation
  • Opportunity to build your legal and administrative skills
  • Varied role with plenty of client interaction
  • Long-term stability 

You'll be the first point of contact for clients, both in person and over the phone, ensuring everyone receives a professional and friendly experience. Alongside reception duties, you'll provide administrative support to the wider team, helping the office operate efficiently each day.

Key responsibilities include:

  • Meeting and greeting clients and visitors
  • Answering and directing telephone calls
  • Managing meeting rooms and appointments
  • Handling incoming and outgoing post
  • Assisting with general administration, filing and document management
  • Providing support to legal teams as required

This role would suit someone who enjoys working with people, has excellent organisational skills and takes pride in delivering a professional service. Previous reception or customer service experience is beneficial, although candidates with strong transferable skills are encouraged to apply.

If you're looking to join a welcoming law firm where you'll feel valued and have the opportunity to develop your career, we'd love to tell you more.

Apply now for a confidential discussion. Your CV will never be sent to our client without your permission, and we'll talk you through the role in detail before any application is submitted. Even if this position isn't quite right, we work with a range of legal opportunities across the local area and would be happy to discuss other options.
