1 month ago


Leeds, Leeds, United Kingdom Hays Legal Full time


My client is one of the fastest growing practices in the Leeds market and a firm which has seen an excellent level of growth within its Social Housing division.

An opportunity is now available for a Paralegal to come and join the team in a well-rounded role that would be perfect for someone either with previous litigation experience or for someone looking for an opportunity to break into the legal profession subject to demonstrating a positive attitude towards further learning and development.


In addition to ad hoc administrative tasks as and when required, this role will involve assisting with litigated matters related to housing disrepair work.

The successful candidate will work alongside a very experienced team and will be exposed to top-quality work and increasing levels of responsibility as the role progresses.

Candidates must live within a commutable distance from my client's Leeds City Centre office.

The team does follow a hybrid working pattern and the successful candidate can expect to be required to attend the office either 2 or 3 times a week, depending on workload and client demands.


Although previous litigation experience would be preferential, my client is open to applications from candidates with a strong academic background and a proactive approach towards furthering their own knowledge.

For further information about this role, please contact Samuel Higgins at Hays Legal.
