Carrying out legal research and document review as requested.
Carrying out general administrative duties, including organisation and management of files, records and documents; and word processing.
Drafting simple precedent based legal documents under the supervision of solicitors within the Corporate Legal Services Department.
Drafting correspondence, reports, litigation documents, submissions, and other documentation under supervision.
Providing administrative and legal support to ensure efficient and effective day to day operations.
About you
Studying a law degree, preferably with 3 or more years before completion of law degree.
High level computing skills in word processing and familiarity with various software packages.
Ability to work within short timeframes and in a fast-paced environment.
Very good communication skills.
Attention to detail and accuracy.
Good legal research skills, including internet research.
Ability to work with minimal supervision and to demonstrate initiative.
Display integrity and commitment to the Law Society's confidentiality requirements.
Ability to adapt to a changing and flexible work environment, and manage competing priorities.
Display a commitment to quality client service.
To apply
The Law Society of New South Wales is committed to building and maintaining a respectful and inclusive workplace, appointing the best person for the role and supporting diversity.

Applications should contain a CV and cover letter that outlines your key experience and motivations for this role.
