Description

This is a unique opportunity; our client is not a corporate organization looking to increase its bottom line, but a foundation, influencing leaders globally, both in governments and across boardrooms, to create positive change and change the lives of many. Their campaign has grown to include contributions from royalty, business leaders, and well-known individuals in the fields of film, entertainment, music, fashion, art, sport, and literature. The organization was founded in 2003 and during the last ten years, truly great things have been accomplished, and the projects have become more involved and diverse in nature. We are seeking a positive, highly energetic, and enthusiastic Legal Secretary and Office Manager; someone who possesses social awareness on a global level with strong business acumen. This role will present a unique opportunity to gain clarity and insight into how a charity project is operated and funded. The candidate will act as an integral part of the team and have direct involvement in the management of a busy and stimulating office environment. There is a real element of being able to make a difference in all areas of the social enterprise, which are owned by the charity. Key Responsibilities: Supporting legal contract work General EA support Administrative and office management support Managing the Director’s personal affairs, including liaising with household staff and managing the Director’s property portfolio Communicating with tenants, property managers, and contractors The position will be based in Dubai with periodic travel required, which on occasion can be for lengthy periods of time. Travel and accommodation will, of course, always be provided. Due to a new project, the pace of work, especially until the end of December, will be fast and furious, and the candidate will be required to work abroad for the first two months. The successful applicant will have worked in a legal environment and/or had exposure to extensive contracts work. Paralegal training would be especially beneficial. It goes without saying that IT skills should be exceptionally advanced in MS Office, and a typing speed of 75-80 wpm is expected due to the high levels of audio dictation work required. The candidate must be a native English speaker and hold a passport that allows for flexible travel across Europe, Australia, the US, and Canada. About The Company: Irwin & Dow was established by two highly experienced recruitment professionals, Tracey Irwin and Jocelyn Dow. We provide a refreshing approach by working in close partnership with clients and candidates within the Business Support, Secretarial, HR & Finance sectors. Good staff are key to every business. We recognise and appreciate this, having over thirty years combined recruitment and executive search experience within the region. Our main aim is to provide a specialist service to clients preferring to work with a bespoke consultancy. Our values of discretion and diplomacy are paramount, and our ultimate goal is to become a partner of choice for all our clients and candidates. #J-18808-Ljbffr
