You must have experience managing a team of more than 14 people and a budget of more than $5M.

Responsibilities: This position is responsible for overseeing and improving both our people and our systems. • You will be responsible for planning and managing the day-to-day operations of the Firm, but not do the legal work• You will also implement Firm policies and procedures under the general guidance and supervision of the owner• You will create or improve all administrative functions in our firm.

Our business has grown fast, and while we are not a “start-up,” we have a growth-focused environment. If you are at a larger company or law firm and want to get back to the fast-paced fun of growing a smaller business into a larger business in 18 months or less, then this is the job for you.• We need someone with the experience to work closely with the Owner and key staff on strategy, policy, problem-solving, and decision-making.• The ideal candidate understands that you cannot manage what you do not measure – and can help us figure out how to build systems to ensure we can measure and manage effectively.• We need a Firm Administrator who is great at project management and systems development, and who will be invested in making important contributions to the operating and financial success of the Firm.• Working with us can prove to be the best job you ever had or the most frustrating … depending on your flexibility, team spirit, commitment to the clients, and your realistic expectations about what it’s like to work in a fast-paced growing business with a passionate and entrepreneurial owner.• I have been a solo law firm owner for 16 years and this is the first time I am bringing in someone to help with the day-to-day integration of my vision so I can focus more "on" the business rather than working "in" the business. The right person for this position is someone I can develop trust in and who will trust in me. The right person for this position will be able to “manage up” to help me help you get your job done.• Our office is in North Carrollton, Texas.• Prior law firm administration experience is a plus.
