  • Are an effective communicator with excellent written and verbal English




  • Are efficient and organised, able to manage multiple tasks at once

What Sets You Apart - You’ll Shine Even Brighter With:


  • Experience developing SOPs, workflows, or improving internal processes




  • Prior involvement in billing, client engagement, or light marketing support




  • A legal studies or paralegal qualification (advantageous but not essential)




  • A track record of building strong professional relationships and working with integrity




 
Work Schedule & Employment Terms


  • Full-Time | Monday to Friday




  • Remote role for Philippine-based candidates




  • Proper Philippine employment setup (not freelance or project-based)




 
Perks & Benefits from Day 1


  • HMO with 1 free dependent
