Job Description

I'm looking to hire a bright, organized, tech savvy professional to work directly with me at my boutique legal recruiting firm. This is a long-term, generalist role; you'll handle everything from spreadsheet review to email management and invoicing to identifying attorney candidates using AI and LinkedIn. You need to be genuinely comfortable with admin work and enjoy the variety of also doing research.

What You'll Actually Do:

  • Admin/operations (30-60%): Email management, database updates (Loxo, Trello), invoicing, job postings, document management, tracking placements, improving systems and processes
  • Recruiting research/sourcing (40-70%): Using LinkedIn Recruiter and AI tools to identify attorney candidates and potential clients, draft outreach emails, maintain candidate spreadsheets

The Reality: The work is varied with this admin/sourcing split. Some of this work is straightforward and routine—the kind of work that keeps a business running but isn't glamorous. If you're fine with the steady rhythm of support work and appreciate the variety of also doing research, this could be a good fit.

Who Thrives Here:

  • You have several years of professional experience
  • You like wearing multiple hats and enjoy shifting between admin and research
  • You would enjoy finding ways to automate recurring tasks and evaluating new tech tools
  • You are tech savvy and are willing to learn new tech tools (AI, LinkedIn Recruiter, CRM systems)
  • You're a low-maintenance professional - consistent, reliable, don't need constant feedback

What We Offer:

  • ~$25-35/hour (depending on experience)
  • Independent contractor position (no healthcare benefits)
  • Ideally 40 hours/week, but may be open to 30 hours/week
  • Fully remote, flexible schedule depending on your needs and interests
  • Detailed training manual - the learning curve is manageable
  • Direct partner support - small team, no corporate bureaucracy
  • Long-term position - I'm looking for someone who wants to stay for years

Requirements:

  • Several years of professional work experience in roles involving detailed, repetitive work (admin, operations, executive assistant, project coordination, customer service, or similar), and research (or sourcing) or an interest in it
  • College or advanced degree preferred
  • Extremely organized and detail-oriented
  • Willing to learn new tech tools and platforms
  • Strong written communication
  • Comfortable with routine admin work as a core part of the role
  • Available consistently (ideally 40 hours/week, open to 30)

To Apply: Email andrew@mlordc.com (Andrew Gurman) with your resume and answer this question in 150 words or less:

"What appeals to you about this remote support role? What are your concerns or hesitations about the role?"

Our hiring process includes a paid practical assessment (1 hour, $30) where you'll complete real tasks from the role. This lets you see what the work is actually like, and lets us see how you work.
