## About this task

This specialty pharma company in diagnostics (5,000+ employees) is looking for a senior Paralegal for an ongoing part-time engagement of 3–8 h a week. Keeps matter files organised and deadlines clear.

The company wants a senior person on this without carrying the cost of a full-time role. It works in life sciences, where documents are versioned and reviewed in a fixed order.

The work is fully remote. Any location in United Kingdom works, with a few hours of overlap with the team's day. Most people do this on weekday evenings; replies inside the working day are not expected.

## What you deliver

- Organise matter files, update the docket and send a weekly deadline list.

- Work logged against the agreed list, so the company contact can see progress without a call

- Questions collected in one thread, answered within one working day

- A short handover note when the engagement pauses or ends

## What a week looks like

- Daily: one hour at a time that suits you, inside the agreed window

- Friday: ten-minute sync if anything is blocked

- Thursday: weekly summary posted to the shared thread

**Duration:** 16 weeks, renewable. Accepted when the output matches the agreed checklist and the sample check passes; the recruiter confirms by e-mail.

## Tools

Clio SharePoint

## Who fits

- 5-10 years of hands-on work as a Paralegal, or the equivalent mix of roles

- Comfortable working in Clio and SharePoint

- The work is done under the supervision of a licensed lawyer or accountant on the company's side.

### Nice to have

- Used to short written handovers

- Experience in a similar industry

## Not included

- Travel or work at a fixed location

- Managing other contractors or employees

- A signature or opinion in your own name: sign-off stays with the company

## How you get paid

- The company prepays Deftridge before your first hour, so payment does not depend on a late invoice.

- Deftridge pays you in GBP after the company confirms the hours or the deliverable. The payment date is written in your task agreement.

- You work as an independent contractor: you report your own income, and your recruiter sends the statements your accountant needs.

- You never chase the company. Questions about money go to Deftridge.
