What you'll be doing:
Are you looking for a role in a friendly and dynamic, agile working environment that will provide you with an outstanding opportunity to help shape how a modern in-house legal team works, as well as further your ongoing personal and professional development?
As a Legal Administrator, you'll be supported to grow and advance through excellent training and progression opportunities.
Full training will be provided to build knowledge of the more technical aspects of the role.

Legal & Secretariat (L&S) is a forward-looking and innovative function, currently undertaking a programme of transformation to become 'Future Ready.' Our Legal Practice Management (LPM) team manages the operational model, modernises processes and data, and supports our lawyers to provide expert legal advice to businesses and functions across the Group.

We are always looking for opportunities to deliver new ways of working across L&S to ensure that we are 'Future Ready.' You'll join the LPM team as a Legal Administrator, working within a group of colleagues supporting our legal teams.

The work will involve a wide range of activities, all with the purpose of ensuring the smooth running and success of the legal teams. These will focus on administration processes, reporting and data management and working closely with our senior team supporting in their day-to-day tasks.

You will also play a key role in our work to make Legal & Secretariat 'Future Ready.' The role offers a varied workload and plenty of opportunity for development.

In this role you'll:
* Manage and continuously improve business support processes to drive efficiency and consistency across the team
* Act as a professional first point of contact for colleagues, handling a wide range of internal and external queries across all levels
* Monitor shared inboxes and legal post, triaging incoming work and allocating queries and claims in line with agreed protocols
* Maintain accurate records of legal matters, including case setup on PEGA, data management, reporting support, and document retrieval
* Provide operational and administrative support to legal teams, including data processing, reporting, supplier contracts, invoicing, and cross-team coordination.

Why join us?
We're on an exciting journey to transform our Group and the way we're shaping finance for good. We're focusing on the future, investing in our technologies, workplaces, and colleagues to make our Group a great place for everyone.

What we're looking for?
We are looking for an enthusiastic and proactive individual. You'll need to demonstrate strong organisational skills, plus the ability to multi-task and work effectively in a fast-paced environment. You'll be capable of prioritising your own workload to deadlines without losing your eye for detail.
You'll have the discretion and professionalism necessary to manage the highly confidential matters often dealt with by the legal teams.

Key skills:
* Strong planning and organisational skills, with the ability to prioritise effectively while maintaining a high level of accuracy and attention to detail
* Confident in building relationships and engaging with stakeholders at all levels, both internally and externally
* Excellent communication skills, with the ability to convey information clearly and professionally
* Proficient in Microsoft Office 365 applications, with experience in Power BI desirable, and a willingness to further develop these skills
* Adaptable and proactive, with a strong willingness to learn new systems and technologies, (including AI tools such as Copilot) and contribute to ad hoc projects and continuous improvement initiatives.

And any experience of these would be great:
* Experience in building and maintain dashboards with Power BI.

We know that great talent comes from many backgrounds. We recognise that skills are developed in many ways, so if you have relevant, transferable experience, we encourage you to apply.

This is a place for you:
Our ambition is to be the leading UK business for diversity, equity and inclusion supporting our customers, colleagues and communities and we're committed to creating an environment in which everyone can thrive, learn and develop.
