- Flexible hybrid work arrangements – full-time or part-time considered
- Hands-on role with high levels of client interaction
- Ideal for candidates pursuing a long-term career in legal support
ABOUT THE ROLE:
We are seeking a motivated and detail-oriented Legal Assistant to join our friendly and supportive team. This is a hands-on position offering significant client contact and involvement across all stages of legal matters—from file inception through to settlement.
You’ll be working closely with experienced professionals who value mentorship and collaboration. We offer strong on-the-job training and a solid “buddy” onboarding system to help you settle in and grow within your role. There are no limits to how far an aspiring legal support professional can progress in our firm.
The core purpose of this role is to provide administrative and legal support that ensures the smooth operation of lawyers’ client portfolios. Your responsibilities will include document preparation, formatting legal correspondence, appointment coordination, file management, and assisting with procedural legal tasks. Your work will enable our lawyers to focus on legal outcomes while ensuring the highest standards of client service and compliance.
This role is well-suited to someone with previous office administrative experience—ideally in a legal environment, though this is not essential. A legal certificate, diploma, or law-related degree is advantageous but not required.
WHY JOIN US?
We understand the importance of balancing work, study, and family responsibilities. We’re proud of the work-life balance we offer and are open to flexible hours and hybrid work arrangements.
We celebrate diversity and are privileged to work in a multicultural professional environment. A second language is welcome, but not essential.
ABOUT OUR LAW FIRM:
At HC+A, we are committed to delivering a personalised five-star service to every client. From the moment they walk through our doors to the final resolution of their case—and beyond—we aim to provide compassionate, expert support.
As a Legal Assistant, you’ll work alongside talented lawyers in a supportive environment, managing files across personal injury areas such as WorkCover, TAC, Public Liability, and Medical Negligence.
COMPENSATION:
Remuneration is commensurate with experience.
