What I'm looking for

I’m looking for a role where I can lead day-to-day operations while supporting legal/administrative workflows, strengthen financial oversight, and improve service delivery using tools like PracticePanther, Sage Pastel, and Trello.

I’m a versatile, disciplined professional with over 6 years of experience across legal administration, operations management, and leadership. I’m recognized for high-level organizational skills, a proactive approach to operational health, and the ability to manage multifaceted business functions—especially where strict legal protocols, high-tier data management, and first-time-right outputs matter.

In my current role as Director’s PA, Office Manager & Legal Assistant, I oversee firm-wide administrative operations, coordinate the Director’s diary and stakeholder communications, and use PracticePanther to support automated billing and financial matter tracking. I also bring hands-on operational leadership from managing client onboarding, high-volume operational reporting, and inventory/supply chain logistics, and I’m currently upskilling in accounting to strengthen financial oversight and administrative rigor.
