• Real-Time Client & Court Liaison: Serve as the active overnight point of contact. Draft and send high-volume email correspondence to US clients, opposing counsel, and court personnel with zero delay.
• End-of-Day Case Reporting: Generate and maintain daily Excel/Google Workspace tracking sheets to provide leadership with clear visibility into case statuses and metrics.
• Operational Execution: Ensure flawless digital record-keeping of all scheduling changes and incoming legal correspondence during the US business day.

• Communication: Near-native, flawless written and verbal English skills. You must be comfortable corresponding professionally with US judges, clerks, and high-profile clients.
• Speed & Focus: Exceptional organizational skills and a high level of comfort with repetitive, high-volume administrative tasks in a fast-paced live environment.
• Tech Literacy: Advanced proficiency in Google Workspace (Gmail, Calendar) and Microsoft Excel.
