Role Purpose

The role of the Billing Assistant is to successfully bill in line with the Client's billing protocols. The Billing Assistant will be the designated expert in relation to the client's billing requirements. They will be required to work closely with the e-billing teams and the wider finance teams to provide a seamless and 'right first time' billing experience for our clients.

The role also covers 3 elements; matter validation, billing support and additional requests. In addition to these, they will be expected to understand the implications of billing on firm-wide cash flow and lock up.

We want all our people to thrive at work and reach their full potential and we work hard to continue to build a diverse and inclusive culture, monitor and report on our progress and impact, and develop our approach. This is reflected in our policies, systems and processes, and in our work with diversity membership organisations.
