Having a history dating back to the 1830s, Thomson & Bancks are a well-established and local, trusted, dedicated law firm with offices in Pershore, Tewkesbury and Stratford-upon-Avon, across the three counties of Worcestershire, Gloucestershire and Warwickshire.

We provide a full range of legal services to businesses and individuals and are currently looking to recruit a legal secretary to join our thriving Private Client department.

The right candidate, will become a part of a friendly, welcoming team in a relaxed atmosphere with beautiful, historic surroundings.

We pride ourselves on our ethos ‘You matter to us’, which we apply to both our clients and staff; members of the team who have returned after periods away will attest to this.

We offer 33 days annual leave per calendar year, including bank holidays, for a full-time member of the team.

Once you have been with Thomson & Bancks for 3 months you will be enrolled in the Government backed NEST pension scheme, subject to meeting the scheme’s requirements.

Treats are always appreciated, with members of the team bringing in cakes and biscuits to celebrate their birthday or a well enjoyed holiday and there is always an excuse for people to get together for lunch – birthdays, celebrating exam results, pay day or just because it’s Friday.

In return, we are looking for someone who possesses strong organisational abilities, has excellent communication and client care skills and a willing team player. Previous audio typing or legal secretary experience would be an advantage.

As well as socialising and enjoying cake we would also look for you to carry out general secretarial duties including the use of an electronic case management system, communicating with clients both by telephone and face to face, typing using digital dictation, file administration, diary management and document production.
