About the Role

We are looking for an experienced Senior Paralegal to provide high-level legal and administrative support to an Australian legal practice.

• Prepare correspondence, letters, forms, summaries, and other legal documentation
• Assist with case preparation, including compiling relevant documents and information
• Maintain accurate matter records, calendars, deadlines, and follow-ups
• Assist with lodgement and submission of documents to relevant authorities, courts, or other organisations
• Coordinate with clients, lawyers, external parties, and other stakeholders
• Monitor outstanding documents, information, and action items
• Assist with client onboarding and matter opening processes
• Support lawyers with document review, discovery, and file organisation where required
• Maintain confidentiality of client and case information at all times
• Ensure legal files and documentation are organised and maintained according to internal procedures
• Assist with general legal practice administration and other tasks that support the smooth running of the firm
• Identify opportunities to improve administrative and document management processes

Requirements

• Bachelor's degree in Law, Legal Studies, Paralegal Studies, or a related field
• 4–6+ years of relevant paralegal or legal support experience
• Demonstrated experience supporting lawyers, partners, or senior legal professionals
• Strong understanding of legal documentation and case/matter administration
• Excellent document preparation and proofreading skills

• Excellent written and verbal English communication skills
• Strong organisational and time-management skills
• Ability to manage multiple matters, deadlines, and priorities
• High level of discretion when handling confidential client information
• Proficiency in Microsoft Office, particularly Word and Outlook

Highly Desirable

• Previous experience supporting an Australian law firm or legal practice
• Familiarity with Australian legal terminology, processes, and documentation
• Experience in areas such as family law, commercial law, litigation, property, migration, or other relevant legal practice areas
• Experience with legal practice management or document management systems
• Experience working directly with Australian lawyers, Partners, or Practice Managers
• Strong legal research skills
• Experience working in an offshore legal support environment

What We’re Looking For

We are looking for a senior-level legal support professional who can work with a high degree of independence. The successful candidate should be able to anticipate what lawyers need, keep matters and deadlines organised, and produce accurate, professional-quality work with minimal supervision.

Australian legal experience is a strong advantage, but strong paralegal experience and the ability to quickly adapt to Australian legal processes will also be considered.
