About the Role

We are seeking a highly motivated and qualified legal officer to join our team at Bury Council. As a legal officer, you will play a crucial role in providing high-quality legal advice and support to our clients. Your primary responsibilities will include handling a caseload of sales under Right to Buy legislation, enfranchisement, and leases and licences. You will also be responsible for developing excellent relationships with partners and colleagues, and providing a first-class legal service to our clients.

Key Responsibilities
  • Handle a caseload of sales under Right to Buy legislation, enfranchisement, and leases and licences
  • Develop excellent relationships with partners and colleagues
  • Provide high-quality legal advice and support to clients
  • Work collaboratively with the legal team to achieve Bury Council's vision
Requirements

To be successful in this role, you will need to have a strong understanding of local government law and a proven track record of providing high-quality legal advice. You will also need to be able to work effectively in a team and have excellent communication and interpersonal skills. Prior experience in local government is desirable, but not essential. What is essential is your determination to provide a first-class legal service and your ability to work in a flexible and agile manner.

What We Offer

We offer a range of benefits, including flexible and agile working, a range of staff benefits, and opportunities for career development. Our legal team is incredibly friendly and supportive, and you will be provided with training and development opportunities to develop and enhance your skills. We are committed to Bury being an equal society that recognises values and embraces all people, regardless of any difference, for the skills, abilities and experiences they bring into the workforce and the wider community.
