Bond Dickinson LLP is a national law firm that has recently been recommended as a top tier firm across 36 practice areas in the Legal 500, a leading guide to law firms in the UK. The firm's legal expertise, excellent client care and commercial approach has been noted throughout the directory. We have 8 offices across the UK, believe in working flexibly, managing people professionally and leading by example. And we always make time to enjoy ourselves!

We are currently looking for a first-class Secretary to support the Commercial Disputes team in our Southampton office, initially on a 12-month contract basis.

We have one of the leading dispute resolution teams in the UK and incredibly talented regulatory team, as independently verified in Chambers and Legal 500, so this is a great time to be joining.

This role will provide important secretarial support to the lawyers within a dynamic and demanding law office. The role requires the production of large volumes of work, consisting of audio and copy typing along with organisational duties such as diary management, accounts (invoicing & reporting) and file maintenance. The successful candidate will have close relationships with the other secretarial staff and lawyers within the teams.

Previous experience of working as a legal secretary is essential, preferably within a commercial law practice.

In return we can offer an approach which is really quite simple; we work hard but we also want our people to enjoy long and successful careers with us. Therefore we make sure that everybody has the opportunity to develop and grow, and be rewarded appropriately.
