We are a dynamic, fast-growing law firm looking for an experienced Law Firm Administrator (aka Law Firm COO or PLA) to take us to the next level and beyond. We are looking for a Law Firm Administrator to work directly with our Owners to oversee everything except the practice of law. This includes not only strategic planning, project management, and critical administrative and financial oversight, but is also a key leadership role in shaping and sustaining our Firm culture. This is an executive-level position for a Law Firm Administrator who will be responsible for a wide range of activities in all phases of administration, personnel, finances, facilities, and business systems. We need someone with significant hands-on experience. You MUST have Law Firm experience and you must have experience managing a team of more than 20 people and a budget of more than $5,000,000. This is not a position for an “Office Manager," "Operations Manager," "Paralegal," or “Administrative Assistant.” 401(k) and Health Benefits Responsibilities: You must be able to show evidence of your prior success with: • Business process refinement and systems management to ensure profitable operation of the Firm • Systems management to ensure matters are handled appropriately so that client needs are met, legal and ethical requirements are met, and clients receive excellent service • Employee leadership, performance management, supervision (and termination) - HR Experience is required • Creation of an implementation of an Employee Training System • Understand and use common financial reports to make decisions (budget variance, P&L, cashflow forecast) • Management of bookkeeper, accountant, technology systems, and other vendors What you can do is important.

Our business grew fast, and while we are not a “start-up,” we have a growth-focused environment.Our firm has been very successful, and we have grown rapidly without the guidance of a Law Firm Administrator. We are proud of the Firm we’ve built; we’ve done a lot of good, and we’ve gotten a lot of stuff right! But there is still room for improvement and expertise. This is the first time we will be bringing in someone from the outside to help us manage and grow our firm. The right person for this position is someone in whom we can develop trust and who will trust in us. The right person for this position will be able to “manage up” to help us help you get your job done.Prior legal industry experience is required.

We will define specific KPIs for expected law firm growth, profitability, and culture.  Compensation: $90,000 - $125,000 yearly
