Their Brisbane team is growing, and they’re now looking for a Legal Assistant to join their Trade Marks group — someone with strong attention to detail, a proactive mindset, and the confidence to support at a senior level.

This is a high-impact role. You’ll work closely with respected leaders in the business, support multiple fee earners, and become a trusted part of the practice — not just behind the scenes, but in the thick of fast-paced, high-level work.

• Be part of a stable, long-standing business with a strong growth trajectory
  
  
• Clear development pathways and access to broader learning opportunities
  
  
• Work in a firm where legal support is seen as essential — not secondary
  
  

The Day-to-Day

• Managing busy inboxes and tracking critical deadlines
  
  
• Drafting legal documents, letters, and court forms with precision
  
  
• Preparing and processing client invoices and trust documentation
  
  
• Maintaining accurate electronic files and matter records
  
  
• Handling client onboarding and managing confidential info with care
  
  
• Coordinating travel, meetings, and occasional marketing admin
  
  
• Working closely with senior lawyers and the broader support team
  
  

The Must Haves

• 2–3+ years’ experience as a Legal Assistant or Secretary (ideally in IP, Litigation or Commercial law)
  
  
• Exceptional time management and a solutions-focused approach
  
  
• Confident communicator with a calm, professional presence
  
  
• Strong MS Office skills and familiarity with legal admin systems
  
  
• Adaptability, curiosity, while thriving in a fast-paced environment
  
  

This is the kind of role that suits someone who loves structure but also wants variety. You’ll be given autonomy, responsibility, and support in equal measure.
