Adult Social Care Solicitor Job, Birmingham City Centre, Leading Local Authority

Your new company

Due to a team restructure, we are now looking to recruit a Locum Adult Social Care Solicitor to work in the heart of the city centre. Birmingham City Council is the largest single local authority in Europe offering a range of opportunities and regeneration. With Birmingham and the surrounding areas continuing to develop, the council pride itself to make life better for the millions of people who live and work in the city.

Your new role

As a qualified locum Solicitor you will be working within the Adult Social Care Team to provide legal services to the City Council departments, its officers and employees. You will be responsible for a full caseload where you will be required to deal with a wide range of adult social care and health issues including assessment and care management, mental capacity and the Court of Protection, mental health, asylum and immigration, adult safeguarding and judicial review.

What you'll need to succeed

As a qualified Solicitor, you will ideally have a minimum 3 years post qualified experience and will have worked within an Adult Social Care legal team or have strong litigation experience. A local authority / public sector background would be highly beneficial, but not essential as the right candidate with transferable skills willing to be trained in this area of the law will be considered.

What you'll get in return

You will be working with an employer who is an accredited Investor in People and who are renowned for their supportive culture that can offer flexible working. You will be covering a range of potential projects within the council and have input into lots of different areas, offering a great deal of variety and flexibility. You will be based in their office in the heart of the city centre and paid a competitive salary.
