Paralegal

Paralegal

Belfast

World-class firm

£19,000-£24,000

Your new role

Signatus are representing a world-class legal client to recruit multiple paralegals (career paralegals advantageous), to join its newly established Belfast-based office. The role will support the senior partners and solicitors in their delivery of excellent client service to some globally recognised clientele, including high net worth individuals and global multinational corporations.

What will I be doing?

You will be exposed to both the best contentious litigation and non-contentious work available in this field and have access to the leading practitioners in their fields in this position. Your legal research skills and knowledge will be vastly enhanced within this learning environment and you will be given responsibilities for preparing and organising a caseload also. You will work in small focus teams and individually also to draft, prepare and advise on complex legal matters.

What experience do I need?

We are interested in speaking with any career paralegals or paralegals who can demonstrate excellent academics (a First class degree, or Masters qualification in addition to a legal degree, are advantageous). You do not have to have a lot of litigation experience as you can be trained in specific specialisms that the firm practice in. However, an aptitude for learning and developing professionally is required as is the ability to use your initiative. Strong research skills or prior experience working in heavily intensive research roles or prior paralegal experience within busy commercial teams would be of high interest.

Opportunity?

You will be joining an established brand in a newly established Belfast office, making it a fantastic opportunity to help grow and develop with the firm, as its client list and pipeline grow too. This is a long-term career option for any paralegal who is thinking they maybe haven’t been given the right environment to grow in or are currently doing a type of work in a practice area they don’t really enjoy. Applications from paralegals who are wanting to develop their legal experience and go on to train as a solicitor or BL, are also welcomed.
