  • A qualified Solicitor, Barrister or Fellow of CILEx with a current (or eligible) practising certificate.
  • Knowledge of the law in relation to vulnerable adults – including community care, mental health, Court of Protection, no recourse to public funds and children leaving care services.
  • Understanding of good governance and local government, human rights and equalities legislation.
  • Experience working in a legal service or practice, confident with legal research tools and case management systems.
  • A clear commitment to continuing professional development and staying at the leading edge of your field.
  • Track record of proactive case management with the ability to deliver solutions under pressure and to work as part of a team.
  • Experience of drafting legal documents and responding to pre action correspondence.
