The Role

We’re looking for passionate South Africa-based lawyers to join our team and support our specialist employment lawyers.

  • Undertaking some legal admin work
  • Supporting UK solicitors with legal research, correspondence and negotiations

What We’re Looking For

  • Legal drafting & legal research experience
  • Negotiating skills
  • Passionate about access to justice and employee rights
  • Experience in project work and an understanding of project processes
  • Self-employed status and ability to work full-time remotely, with excellent self organisation
  • Demonstrable tech-savviness, including use of AI tools, to improve efficiency
  • Excellent written English, spoken English and professional communication skills
  • Positive, diligent and reliable team player
  • A reliable, proactive and detail-oriented work ethic
  • Case handling strategy & case work experience are preferred, but not necessary

  • Full-time self-employed position
  • Pay will be based on local market rates, depending on experience
  • 100% remote working, with remote onboarding and training provided
  • Supportive and inclusive team culture, with regular virtual collaboration

Why it works

3×

more interviews than doing it yourself with ChatGPT.

ChatGPT writes a CV and never learns what happened to it. We see every reply. For each CV we know:

  • How it was written, and how the review scored it
  • When we applied, and how long after the posting went up
  • Which posting, which company, which city
  • Who got the interview, and who heard nothing

That is how we know which CVs get called.
