Legal Cheek is hiring a junior virtual events coordinator to join our growing team.

The role can be done from anywhere in the UK. You’ll be working from 9-5, with a video meeting with the rest of the Legal Cheek team at the beginning and the end of each day, as well as regular contact with the team through Slack.

You’ll be part of a team managing, coordinating and administering our busy programme of virtual student events and law fairs.

Duties include processing event applications; corresponding with attendees; liaising with law firms, law schools and partner organisations about event logistics; and assisting at virtual events.

Qualities that we are looking for:

·      Very well-organised

·      Excellent attention to detail

·      Conscientious

·      Good time-management and ability to multi-task

·      Experience of holding positions of responsibility

·      Good communication skills (written and verbal) and friendly manner

·      Social media savvy

·      Proficiency in Excel

·      Willing to muck in as part of a team

A legal background is not essential but the role would suit a recent law graduate interested in either pursuing a career in events and/or marketing and publishing, or looking to gain experience of the legal industry before starting a training contract or pupillage. Current students who are set to graduate this summer are also encouraged to apply. For the right candidate there will be opportunities to progress and take on more responsibility.

The salary for this position is the National Living Wage, with a homeworking allowance.

Applications are open until 23:59 on Monday 26 April, with interviews taking place virtually the following week. Apply by submitting a CV and cover letter.
