  • Work closely with support staff to continually improve the caller experience

What We're Looking For

  • Excellent phone manner with strong communication skills and a client-service focus
  • Experience in a switchboard reception environment (legal/medical/professional services helpful)
  • Strong attention to detail, reliability, and composure under pressure
  • A positive attitude - friendly, professional, and solutions-focused

Why Apply?

  • Excellent remuneration package
  • Clear, focused responsibilities (no dishwashing, mail runs or unrelated admin)
  • Join a respected team in a highly successful law firm, where attitude and client care are genuinely valued
  • Modern systems, supportive colleagues, and meaningful work helping clients at important moments
