Our client is a Lexcel and IIP Gold accredited practice, who prides themselves on delivering a high quality service. As an organisation, they embrace change and innovation and are regarded as being extremely forward thinking with their approach. Our client is now looking to bring on board a capable and driven Education and Adult Social Care Lawyer.

The successful candidate will be required to carry a full caseload dealing with matters including, but not limited to; 

•           Management of SEN tribunal cases, including advocacy at tribunal

•           Advice, representation and training in respect of general education matters to local authority and school clients to include admissions and exclusions.

•           Judicial Reviews.

Whilst the role is focused on Education Law, the successful candidate may be expected to conduct Adult Social Care work as well.  Previous experience in Education Law is essential, however experience in Adult Social Care Law is desirable, but not essential, as opportunities to develop knowledge and expertise can be given.  Candidates with experience from both the public and private sector are encouraged to apply for this position. The council offers a supportive and friendly team and good quality work, alongside an excellent benefits package. The role will be based at the practice’s London office, although the ability to work at the office in the Home Counties is a possibility on an ad hoc basis.
