The Crime and Regulatory department is recruiting for an experienced solicitor to join its team of technical specialists, dealing with complex regulatory work covering health and safety, environmental, motor crime, nursing and care sectors. The role will be client facing and involve assisting lawyers from the outset, on the day of the incident and throughout the investigation to conclusion.
