Our client is a leading global disputes law firm seeking a highly skilled French speaking Project Analyst to join their London office on a permanent basis. This position offers an amazing opportunity to be at the forefront of leading complex legal disputes with the ability to progress their legal career. The core hours are 9.30am to 5.30pm. The salary on offer is up to £42,500, plus amazing benefits. The role is a full time, permanent position and offers a hybrid working approach (3 days in the office and 2 at home).

The successful Project Analyst (French Speaking) will have to be fluent in French to assist with work for French clients in the UK and claims being brought alongside before national courts across Europe. Experience at law firms is helpful but not necessarily a prerequisite to applying for candidates interested in practising in the area.

As a result, you will be encouraged and, indeed, required to take on responsibility from the outset – with appropriate supervision. Applicants should be keen to take on a degree of autonomy and responsibility, for example in terms of client related data work. You should have experience of, or feel comfortable with, grasping and employing new and innovative concepts as this is relevant to several aspects of their practice, such as extensive data management, group litigation and third-party funding.
