Head of Legal and Compliance

Aylesbury

Salary: £64,829 - £71,960

Keeping Buckinghamshire flourishing means rethinking tomorrow. Which is why we’re transforming our services, including our legal department. And as the Head of Legal and Compliance and Deputy Monitoring Officer, you’ll lead this development. To take on this challenge, you’ll need to be a qualified solicitor or barrister, ambitious and constantly striving for the best possible customer experience - from your team and yourself. That way, you'll help shape Buckinghamshire County Council now and into the future.

This role is an exciting opportunity to work right across the council, supporting major change and effective decision making. Not only will this see you have a direct impact on people’s lives - you’ll leave a legacy that will help generations. But you won’t do it alone, as the support of an experienced team will help you lead these changes. Together, you’ll have a solution-focused approach and a commitment to collaborating effectively to deliver the best possible outcomes for local residents.

To join, you’ll be open to ideas and easy to work with, but able to challenge appropriately when needed. Your experience within local government and leadership skills will allow you to undertake this ambitious programme. You’re also comfortable working with a variety of people, including stakeholders and other members of staff who have no legal background. As a result, it’s vital you can effectively communicate your ideas, and be the main legal advisor to the Council. This opportunity would allow you to further develop your career within an ambitious organisation and we are open to receiving interest from those where this would represent a natural step up. We also actively encourage a positive work-life balance and promote flexible and agile working arrangements.
