2 days ago
Company Overview:
Birketts is a leading law firm that values its employees and provides a supportive work environment. We are committed to delivering high-quality legal services to our clients.
Salary:
The estimated salary for this role is around £60,000 - £80,000 per annum, depending on experience.
Job Description:
We are recruiting an ambitious, driven, and forward-thinking environmental lawyer to join our growing Planning and Environmental Team on a permanent basis. The team is spread across four offices and is expanding rapidly. As a member of the team, you will provide professional, proactive, high-level legal support to an allocated group of fee earners and to the wider fee-earning team.
The role focuses on delivering high-quality environmental law advice to our varied clients. Experience of planning law as well as environmental law would be beneficial, but it is acknowledged that these areas are complex and detailed, so many candidates may only have experience of environmental law.
You will be responsible for supporting the Planning and Environmental team in delivering on its strategy for growth and client service excellence. This includes working collaboratively with colleagues, supervising junior staff, and seeking supervision from senior staff.
You will also be expected to be competent in various software packages such as Microsoft Word and Excel, as well as legal software like Hi Q, Expert Time Recording, and Compare Docs. Additionally, you will prepare advice and documentation to a high standard and deliver to client demands and deadlines.
Required Skills and Qualifications:
To be successful in this role, you will need:
- A qualified lawyer with experience in environmental law commensurate with PQE
- Good computer/technical skills, particularly in Microsoft Office Suite and legal software
- Strong written and oral communication skills
- Ability to communicate with colleagues at all levels of seniority and liaise effectively with other internal departments and external contacts
Benefits:
As a member of Birketts, you can expect a competitive salary and benefits package, including 25 days holiday (FTE) plus Bank Holidays, rising with service. You will also receive private healthcare, Scottish Widows Pension Scheme, Staff Profit Share/Salary sacrifice, Life Assurance, and Paid ESG day.
Agile Working Policy:
Birketts is a flexible business that has adopted a hybrid working model. Our colleagues enjoy a mix of home and office working, and we welcome applications from people looking for flexible, agile, and part-time roles.
