Essex Legal Services (ELS) provides high quality, professional, legal advice across Essex County Council and to an increasing number of external clients.

We are currently recruiting for a Supervising Associate Criminal and Enforcement Lawyer to be part of a specialist Criminal and Enforcement law section within the Dispute Resolution and Employment Law Team. You will work closely with colleagues to ensure the delivery of a high performing, client facing legal service which proactively embraces change. This is a brilliant opportunity for the right person to build strong relationships with internal and external partners.

Essex County Council (ECC) is a diverse and large organisation that strives for excellence and delivers an outstanding service for residents across Essex. As the in-house legal service, ELS prides itself on providing a comprehensive legal service to the Council - most of our work is done in-house. We pride ourselves on valuing the people who work for us and provide a supportive working environment, where people work hard to do their best for Essex.

  • Consumer complaint prosecutions
  • Planning and Environmental Enforcement Prosecutions
  • Highways Enforcement Notices and Prosecutions

You will be positive, enthusiastic and have a passion for delivery of excellent client care and relationship management with a desire to contribute to the future of ELS and its delivery of legal services. The successful applicant will work closely with senior leaders and the role will include supervising staff.

  • Leading the provision of timely and accurate legal advice across the Council and to external clients to produce the best possible outcomes
  • Responsible for delivering the strategic business plan for legal services which supports and drives the Council's wider Organisation Strategy and vision
  • Responsible for assisting with development of staff in ELS, through supervision and line management and delivery of training and informal learning.
  • Delegated functions as detailed in the Council's constitution (and as amended from time to time).
  • Works closely with the Head of Service and senior leaders of ELS to develop current and future business opportunities, to promote the Essex Legal Services vision to the external market.
  • Responsible for the delivery strategy for services, ensuring that performance is clearly defined in terms of benchmarked outcomes and short, medium and long term business targets
