This role will be located in our Washington D.C. office. Please note that this role may be eligible for a flexible working schedule that allows for a hybrid and in-office presence.

Other key responsibilities include:

  • Managing timekeeping activities, including following up with managers and supervisors to ensure all timecards are approved, answering routine questions about timekeeping and the timekeeping system, and ensuring FLSA standards are met
  • Leading new hire orientation and developing programs to facilitate new employee integration during the first year of employment to meet the firm's objectives for new hire retention
  • Partnering with colleagues in the Office of the General Counsel, Well-Being & Benefits, Attorney Development, Business Services Recruiting, Development & Training, Compensation, and Strategy & Operations departments as needed to facilitate seamless communications and promote proactive services
  • Promoting value-added benefits, wellness events, and training opportunities in partnership with the Well-Being & Benefits and Development & Training departments
  • Protecting and maintaining any highly sensitive, confidential, privileged, financial, and/or proprietary information that Latham & Watkins retains

  • Possess comprehensive knowledge of human resources functions
  • Exhibit well-developed and professional interpersonal skills
  • Demonstrate the ability to cultivate relationships across teams at all organizational levels of the firm

And have:

  • A bachelor's degree or equivalent, preferably with a focus in a related field; in lieu of a degree, a minimum of four (4) years of experience may be considered
  • A minimum of two (2) years of relevant experience

Successful candidates will not only be provided with an outstanding career opportunity and welcoming environment, but will also be provided with a generous total compensation package with bonuses awarded in recognition of both individual and firm performance. Eligible employees can participate in Latham's comprehensive benefit program which includes:

  • Healthcare, life and disability insurance
  • A generous 401k plan
  • At least 11 paid holidays per year, and a PTO program that accrues 23 days during the first year of employment and grows with tenure
  • Well-being programs (e.g. mental health services, mindfulness and resiliency, medical resources, well-being events, and more)
  • Professional development programs
  • Employee discounts
  • Affinity groups, networks, and coalitions for lawyers and staff
