Secretary / Proofreader

I am a solo attorney looking for a reliable secretary to assist in document preparation tasks, including proofreading, document assembly, and letter writing.

The secretary does not need to have an understanding of law or an ability to understand the legal components of the documents. Rather, the secretary will proof the documents for everyday spelling and formatting errors, as well as make formatting adjustments to documents so that all documents have a consistent look and feel.

The secretary will also be asked to write letters and emails to clients using pre-made letter templates.

The right candidate for this position is someone who has an acute attention to detail, the patience to thoroughly proof the documents, and an interest in legal services.

This role requires a fluent understanding of the English language, particularly grammar, sentence structure, tense, and gender. Knowledge of legal terms is not required but would be beneficial. You must feel comfortable asking questions when you don't understand a task or requirement.

Knowledge of Canva and the ability to post on social media would be a plus.

While this role is expected to start at 10 hours per week, I would like to find a secretary that can grow with the company and take on more hours and responsibilities as the business grows. The hours for this position are flexible and can be worked during Philippine business hours.
