Secretary - Clinical Negligence
Exeter, Devon
The Company
With offices in Exeter, Teignmouth and Newton Abbot, Tozers Solicitors LLP is looking for a Secretary to join their Clinical Negligence Team in Exeter. This role is available on a full or part-time basis.
With 26 partners and 140 staff across our offices, we offer unrivalled legal services to businesses and individuals, both locally and nationally.
The Benefits
- Competitive salary DOE
- Pension
- Travel loan scheme
- Charity and social responsibility scheme
- 23 days' holiday pro rata
- Extra holiday at Christmas
The Role
The work primarily involves claims by patients and their families in respect of healthcare which fell below an acceptable standard, causing serious harm. We are seen as national experts in CNI and draw clients from widely across England and Wales. Although a very small part of our caseload, we also act for those who have suffered serious, life-changing personal injury after accidents.
The team is currently transitioning to a mainly paper-free working practice and it will be an advantage but not essential if you are familiar with electronic documentation.
You will have excellent IT skills and be familiar with using software for creating bundles of documents. Ideally, but not essentially, you will have used the case management system SOS. It will be an advantage if you also have experience of civil litigation.
The role involves providing assistance and support to two solicitors who are Partners and joint Heads of the Clinical Negligence & Injury team and to the rest of the team as needed.
We aim to take a flexible approach to our working hours and welcome applications from anyone who feels suited to the role but would like to discuss this first. It is probable that the role will involve a combination of working from our office in Southernhay and working from home.
You will be very well organised and will enjoy assisting others. You will have a 'can-do' attitude and will be happy to adapt to the different requirements of the tasks facing you. Ideally, you will be able to demonstrate your problem-solving skills and how you have used these in your previous positions; and that you can respond to busy periods cheerfully and efficiently, providing excellent audio-typing and all-round secretarial support.
An ability to work closely with others of varying levels and a willingness to work as part of a team with the aim of achieving a common goal would be beneficial.
The closing date for applications is the 25th June 2021.
Other organisations may call this role EA, PA, Executive Assistant, Personal Assistant, Legal Secretary, Legal Assistant, Administrator, Legal Administrator, or Legal Team Secretary.
As signatories to the Law Society's Diversity and Inclusion Charter and the MINDFUL EMPLOYER initiative, Tozers Solicitors LLP is committed to reflecting the society we serve and is positive about mental health in the workplace.
