Legal Operations Coordinator

Description

 Prime Corporate Services is seeking a Legal Operations Coordinator to support the Legal Department by coordinating legal requests, maintaining organized matter records, tracking deadlines and follow ups, and helping ensure requests move efficiently from intake through resolution.
 

Reporting to the Legal Operations Manager, this role serves as a central coordination point between Legal and internal business teams. The Coordinator gathers complete information, organizes supporting materials, tracks ownership and next steps, maintains accurate records, and proactively follows up with stakeholders so matters are ready for substantive legal review.
