A standout opportunity has arisen for a polished, proactive Legal PA to support senior leadership within a high-performing Funds team. Working closely with Head of Department–level Partners, this role is suited to someone who thrives in a fast-paced, high-profile environment and is looking to build a long-term career at the top end of the legal market.

- Is recognised globally for its strength across private funds, private equity, complex cross-border transactions, and high-stakes matters

Put simply, this is a rare opportunity to support at the forefront of a top-tier, high-growth practice.
