We are looking for an Administration Assistant to help support our lawyers within the team with administrative day-to-day tasks.
The Real Estate Finance team deals with both sides of the real estate finance spectrum, acting for the main challenger banks and building societies in their secured lending work, most of the major high street banks on high-value loans to investors and businesses, and also working with borrowers in connection with their land or development finance. We also provide advice to lenders who already have taken security but for a number of reasons may need to enforce this security.
This role will primarily involve administrative work such as file openings, checking client due diligence requirements, filing, and archiving.
We are looking for a candidate with a desire to help the team deliver excellent service and a willingness to get stuck into anything that the team requires assistance with. Ideally, the candidate will have strong administration skills and accuracy and may have some experience with customer or client care.
A good work ethic will be required together with the ability to prioritise tasks appropriately.
A legal background or office experience would be an advantage; however, it is not essential. For the right candidate, the position would also be a good gateway into the legal profession and provide a good foundation for future progression, possibly even within this team.
If this sounds like what you are looking for, then please apply with a covering letter and CV.
Our reputation rests on the expertise of our people who are first class in every respect. If, like us, you are committed to putting clients and colleagues first, we would like to hear from you. In return, we offer a competitive package including holiday of up to 25 days plus bank holidays, an additional day off at Christmas, a celebration day off, access to Perkbox - an online discounts platform, and lots more. We also offer market-led training and personal development.
Given regulatory and contractual requirements which apply to the work undertaken by LA, successful candidates for this role will be subject to screening which may include DBS and/or adverse financial checks. LA reserves the right to withdraw any offer made if the results of these checks are unsatisfactory.
Lester Aldridge is committed to being an equal opportunities employer.
