About Adviserly
Adviserly is the global collaboration of firms setting the benchmark for boutique law. We help member firms earn credibility and grow through trusted referrals, peer visibility and the infrastructure that supports boutique excellence. Our members are founders and partners of small specialist law firms who value quality, reputation and trust.
Purpose of the role
This is a broad, hands-on role for someone early in their career. You will keep our membership data and systems in good order, support member engagement and retention work, and assist the Founder and teams across the business. Most of the work is practical and hands-on. We will rely on you to do it accurately and to deadline. You will also learn how a membership organisation runs, with the chance to take on more responsibility as you grow into the role.
You do not need to have done this job before. You do need to be organised, accurate, willing to ask questions and comfortable working across several tasks at once.
You will usually be responsible for setting your own deadlines and you will be expected to obey the golden rule: to do what you say you are going to do, by the time you say you are going to do it.
Who this role is for
This role suits someone who wants to learn how a business runs from the inside. You will see every part of it: data, events, billing, member relations, technology and the day-to-day operations that hold it all together.
This is not a member facing role initially. You will be working with the Founder and a team of 8 consultants (Member Engagement, Member Development, Events, Marketing x2, Tech x2, Finance).
It will suit you if you like variety, take responsibility without being asked, and would rather make your own path than follow a fixed ladder. We think that people who do well at this stage tend to go on to operations, chief-of-staff or general management roles. If you want a structured graduate scheme with defined rungs and annual promotions, this is not that, and you will not enjoy it. We’re a startup. We don’t “move fast and break things”, but we do muck in.
We are not a law firm, and this is not a route into practising law. It is a route into the business side of a fast-growing startup. If you do well (and the business does well), there is the prospect of promotion and building your own team.

- Access only the systems and data needed for the task in hand, and follow agreed limits on what may be sent, to whom and how.
