About BG.legal

BG.legal is an accessible and involved full-service law firm in the center of ’s-Hertogenbosch. We work with short lines, an informal atmosphere, and much attention to collaboration and quality.

 

As a backoffice employee, you are an important link in the daily support of our lawyers and in the further development of our office organization.

 

Your role

You work in a team of backoffice employees. Everyone has designated sections and lawyers for whom they are the first point of contact. At the same time, we support each other and you are fundamentally deployable for all lawyers within the office.

 

Your work is varied: you process digital mail, manage documents and file data, schedule appointments, assist with correspondence, and maintain contact with clients and external parties. You keep an overview, track actions and deadlines, and signal in a timely manner when something requires attention.

 

You work closely with lawyers and colleagues, with clear agreements, independence, and an efficient working method at the core. In addition to daily support, depending on your experience and the need within the office, you may receive an additional office-wide focus area, such as within HR, marketing and communication, onboarding, digitization or quality processes.

• Monitor progress, quality, deadlines, and follow-up; 
• Contribute to uniform working methods, work instructions, and a smooth handover; 
• Guide and check general tasks carried out by student employees; 
• Assist office-wide when workload or continuity requires it.

• You communicate clearly, professionally, and client-oriented and handle confidential information carefully; 

 

What do we offer?

• A varied and independent position within a professional and informal law firm; 
• An involved team with short lines; 
• A careful onboarding process and on-the-job guidance; 
• Space to develop in the role and within a possible office-wide focus area; 
• A salary of € 3,000 to € 4,500 gross per month based on 40 hours, depending on knowledge and relevant experience;
