Ready for a change? Can you demonstrate good technical skills? Do you command the respect and trust of colleagues and clients? Are you a problem solver? If so, then we want you to join our growing friendly, supportive and well respected team.
Adult care law involves Court of Protection proceedings, Mental Health applications and advice on all aspects of the Care Act 2015. Do you have experience in this field or can you evidence good transferable skills (including advocacy) to move into this growing and ever evolving area of the law? Is this the exciting new challenge you have been looking for?
Famous for its stunning cathedral and impressive castle which still functions as a court dispensing justice as it has for over 900 years, the medieval quarter is a great contrast to the lively and youthful feel of this university city.

We care about our staff so we want to offer you a competitive salary, generous holidays and access to our pension scheme. It is important to us that you have an excellent work/life balance and the opportunity to further develop your knowledge and skills in a supportive Local Authority setting where no two days are the same!
