Our Amsterdam office opened successfully in February 2024, and
continues to grow. To support that expansion, we are now seeking a
highly skilled Office Manager, with prior experience in a Secretarial
role, to successfully manage the administration and operations of our
thriving practice.
Our Firm
Squire Patton Boggs is one of the world's strongest integrated law
firms, committed to providing insight at the point where law, business
and government meet. We deliver commercially-focused business

corporations to emerging businesses, start-up visionaries and
sovereign nations.
With over 1,500 lawyers spanning more than 45 offices across four
continents, the firm is renowned for its local connections and global
influence, delivering comprehensive legal services across North
America, Europe, the Middle East, Asia Pacific, and Latin America.
Our Opportunity
This is a varied role - we're an ambitious, expanding team, so in
addition to the day-to-day management of office operations, this
position is responsible for implementing firm policies, procedures and
strategies, as well as managing office budgets and local office
support services.
The role will also involve providing Executive Secretarial support to
our senior lawyers, and wider secretarial duties during periods of
holiday cover.

individual who has a "can do" attitude. Prior experience in
an Office Manager or similar role, along with previous Secretarial
experience within a professional services firm is essential.
You'll need to have the flexibility to assist with a wide variety of
tasks when required, and should also be able to use your initiative
and spot where help is needed with limited supervision.
Being a real collaborative, team player is essential and you will be
comfortable working with people globally. As you will be dealing with
clients of the firm, excellent communication skills are key for this role.
