Legal Cheek is hiring an events coordinator to join our growing team.

You’ll be part of a team coordinating and administering our busy programme of virtual and in-person 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 and in-person events. You’ll also play a role in promoting our events and generating content for our social media channels.

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

The role can be done from anywhere in the UK. You’ll be working from 9-5:30 (37.5 hours per week), 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.

There are quarterly team in-person get togethers, as well as some travel to in-person events, depending on your location, the cost for which is covered by the business. You’ll have access to office space in major cities should you wish to use it.

A legal background is not essential but the role would suit a recent law graduate interested in either pursuing a career in events, or looking to gain experience of the legal industry before securing or starting a training contract. For the right candidate there will be opportunities to progress and take on more responsibility.

The starting salary is competitive and dependent on experience. You will be provided with a company laptop.

Applications are open until 23:59 on Thursday 1 June, with virtual interviews taking place on a rolling basis. Apply by submitting a CV and cover letter.
