Hamilton, Canada KPMG Full time

Overview:
At KPMG, you’ll join a team of diverse and dedicated problem solvers, connected by a common cause: turning insight into opportunity for clients and communities around the world.

The KPMG Law team has an exciting opportunity for a self-motivated Legal Administrative Assistant. In this role, you will combine your strong organizational skills and stakeholder management to provide executive level support.

The role involves proactively organizing, supporting, and assisting the KPMG Law legal professionals in delivering high quality and timely service, information, and advice to internal and external clients. There is a specific focus on being an integral part of the KPMG Law team in executing its strategy, and meeting performance objectives and long-term strategic aspirations.

- Assist with special projects

At times, business needs arise and employees are required and agree to work beyond their normal work day or work week to fulfill the accountabilities required for their job. Likewise, people need time to devote to personal matters, and our approach to flexibility provides for this.

What you bring to this role:

- College diploma in a legal assistant program or equivalent
