**Legal Assistant (Part Time 15-20 hours per week)**

Are you ready to bring your legal skills to a global design firm? At Populous, we’re searching for a detail-oriented and proactive Legal Assistant to support our Senior Legal Counsel, APAC. This role is essential to ensuring the smooth operation of our legal functions and contributing to the success of our projects across the region.

**About Us at Populous**

**Why Populous Stands Out**
Populous isn’t just another architecture and design company. Our strength lies in the diversity of our APAC team, representing over 35 nationalities. We celebrate these cultures and foster a connected, supportive team culture. With offices and projects across the APAC region, we offer endless opportunities for development, growth, and adventure.

We’re committed to making a difference through active Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR) and Diversity, Equity, Inclusion & Belonging (DEIB) strategies that positively impact our team and the communities we serve.

**What We Offer**:

- **Flexibility**: Hybrid working and policies to support work-life balance.
- **Professional Development**: Leadership pathways, mentoring programs, and technical workshops.
- **Extended Leave**: Paid leave entitlements aligned with DEIB principles.
- **Global Connections**: Travel opportunities and a global network of colleagues.
- **Perks and Benefits**: Educational, entertainment and wellness allowances, plus comprehensive support services, including an Employee Assistance Program.
- **Team Culture**: Social activities, events, and a collaborative work environment.

Whatever you need to succeed, we’ll work with you to make it happen

**What We Are Looking For**

We’re seeking a proactive and detail-oriented Legal Assistant to join our team in a flexible, part-time capacity. This role could suit someone balancing other personal and work commitments, such as parents, students, or athletes. It’s an opportunity to work with a dynamic, global team while enjoying flexibility and professional growth.

**Want to see what it’s all about?**
- Yes, we want highly skilled people. That’s a given. But more importantly, we seek individuals who embody our values, are truly energised by the work we do, that want to be involved in the awesome initiatives we are developing, and, most importantly, whether it’s your background, experience, or unique viewpoint, we believe everyone has something special to contribute. At Populous APAC, we know that our strength lies in the diversity of our team.
