Join a highly successful, sophisticated boutique firm that serves high-net-worth clients in a professional and focused environment. Our client is a dedicated team of hard-working professionals who value loyalty, grit, and high standards. This is a stable, "in-office" culture where leadership works hard and expects a manager who will protect their time and advocate for the firm’s success.

  • Partner Support: Act as a dedicated advocate for the Partners, "having their back" and prioritizing their needs to ensure smooth daily operations.
  • Staff Leadership: Manage a support team of five, maintaining a professional environment centered on hard work and accountability.
  • Client Service: Provide a polished and professional point of contact for the firm’s high-end clientele.

Qualifications

  • Financial Skills: Strong background in bookkeeping and legal billing software.
  • Professionalism: A sophisticated demeanor suitable for high-net-worth client interaction.
  • Leadership Style: A management approach that focuses on supporting leadership and maintaining professional boundaries.
  • Availability: This is a full-time, in-office only position.
