Parramatta, New South Wales, Australia Knight Fowler Jenkins Full time
Join leading Parramatta based employer

  • Gain exposure to wide range of legal files
  • Benefits incl: above average super, leave loading and flexi days
Suited to you as an experienced Legal Secretary or 'Career' Paralegal.

The opportunity


Offered on permanent basis, with a 35 hour week, this opportunity of Legal Admin Officer has been created through promotion.


By securing this position, you'll join a collegial team of peers who provide legal administrative support to an equally down to earth team of in-house lawyers at a leading Australian academic institution.


On a daily basis you'll get on hands on with files as you use your legal admin experience to triage matters to your team, take on paralegal style duties around subpoenas and RFI's and manage the legal team's very busy diaries.

You'll also get involved in the facilities and practice management for the wider Office of General Counsel.

A varied role for a great team.

About you
You will be an experienced (2yrs+) Legal Secretary or Career Paralegal and committed to a career in legal support/legal admin


You will be used to working with a high volume of legal matters and have experience using legal document management systems.


You'll be a team player, happy to support lawyers across a wide-range of legal files that could include IP, employment, property or litigation.

You'll also be able to attend the business' Parramatta offices at least 3-4 days a week.

The Employer
Based in the heart of Parramatta this organisation is known for excellence - both as an academic institution and as an employer


You'd join a stable, in-house legal department led by an approachable General Counsel and work closely with a team of legal admin peers.


Both the GC and the organisation are committed to providing a great working environment and this opportunity offers benefits including generous salaries and super, leave loading and flexi days.

The business is also happy for you to start or finish your day outside standard core hours. (Great for those with school pick-up drop offs or other end of day commitments.)

Why apply?
***The appeal of this role isn't just that you will be securing a permanent, full-time legal support role close in the heart of Parramatta, you'll also be securing great working conditions and benefits.


On top of that you'll have a varied, fast-paced position where no two days are the same and become an integral part of an in-house legal team that is both well-supported, well managed and welcoming.
