Director of Administration

  • Location: Dallas
  • Type: Direct Hire
  • Job #550
  • Salary: $175.00

A well-established international law firm, is hiring a Director of Administration for their Dallas office. This position is 100% onsite and offers a unique mix of local office management and firmwide paralegal oversight.

Why This Role Stands Out:

  • Firmwide Reach: The Director will be the first to lead paralegal management across the firm, overseeing work allocation, utilization, and performance development.
  • Close Collaboration: Working with the COO, CHRO, and the Office Managing Partner, this role has visibility at the highest levels of firm leadership.

Primary Responsibilities:

  • Lead office operations, HR functions, and paralegal management
  • Manage annual budget and implement office policies
  • Oversee recruitment, performance management, and professional development
  • Serve as primary liaison for building management and office facilities projects

Must have a four year degree, plus 5 years of law firm office management, preferably from big law.
