StratforduponAvon, United Kingdom Warwickshire County Council Full time

**About Us and the Role**

At Warwickshire Legal Services, we run a very different kind of in-house legal team. We have the freedom to practise as a business within Warwickshire County Council, generating our own income from internal teams and a diverse pool of public sector clients.

Few councils operate this way, and our approach gives you a unique environment to further your career, working with diverse clients and on challenging cases. This position offers the chance to be part of a great local authority with a Children’s Service (rated Good) that really wants to make a difference to the lives of young people. You will also have the opportunity to help other local authorities in the region and further afield and will build on your own skills and expertise along the way.

Few Local Authorities operate this way, and our approach gives you a unique environment to further your career working with a talented, friendly and supportive group of innovative legal professionals.

**About the Role**

The post-holder will be a member of the Children’s strategy and leadership team and contribute to the strategic direction of the service. The role involves single and multi-day advocacy as well as mentoring and coaching of staff. This is an ideal position for someone who thrives on court work but also wants to be involved in leadership.

We are seeking a qualified solicitor or barrister with a good understanding of public law relating to children and families and significant experience in the field. You will have a strong commitment to client care and be a reliable colleague who will fit into our friendly and supportive team.

There are so many reasons to practise with us. Beyond our multiple award wins (including recent success in the LLG Annual Awards) and the opportunity to help drive our future success, you’ll be able to thrive in a positive, supportive environment where we value our people, and their development genuinely comes first. People like to work for us, and we have a tradition of growing our own talent through our excellent training schemes. We are committed to safeguarding and promoting the welfare of children, young people and adults and expect all staff and volunteers to share this commitment.

We have pioneered a system of agile working which provides our lawyers with the opportunity to work within the office environment and remotely. The position is full time at 37 hours per week but we are also open to part-time working, 9 day fortnights and other condensed working models.

Other benefits of working for Warwickshire also include:

- LGPS (Local Government Pension Scheme)
- Generous Holiday allowance
- Employee benefits scheme
- Health & Wellbeing support
- Enhanced Maternity & Paternity leave

In short, we are an ambitious, nationally recognised team that wants to deliver consistently outstanding legal work. If you’re someone who is prepared to get stuck in, who wants to do the best job possible, who approaches everything with passion and purpose, then we would love to hear from you.
