This prestigious department, recognised for its excellence across the UK, is seeking a dedicated professional to contribute to its high-profile work in civil liberties and judicial review claimant matters.



Why This Role Stands Out:


  • Impactful Work - Engage in significant cases against major entities like the Home Office, HMRC, local authorities, and the NHS.

  • Professional Development -Take on a variety of responsibilities, from managing and supervising team members to delivering training and development within the department. This role offers a platform to enhance your leadership skills and legal expertise.
  • Collaborative Environment - Work closely with other firms on funding and case management issues, fostering a culture of positive change and cross-referrals. Your professional network will expand, opening doors to new business opportunities.
  • High Success Rates - Join a team with a proven track record of success, regularly pursuing matters to the Court of Appeal and the Supreme Court.


Key Responsibilities:


  • Reporting directly to the Department Director.
  • Managing all aspects of Public Law work, including providing technical expertise and guidance.
  • Supervising Solicitors, Trainee Solicitors, and Caseworkers.
  • Assisting with training and development within the department.
  • Handling a diverse range of Public Law cases, including unlawful detention, false imprisonment, and asylum support.
  • Preparing and managing funding applications to the Legal Aid Agency.
  • Drafting documents, processing evidence, and attending conferences and court.



Skills and Experience Required:


  • Law Society Immigration Accreditation.
  • A clean, valid Practising Certificate.
  • Strong management skills and previous supervisory experience.
  • Commitment to providing excellent client service.
  • Ability to handle sensitive client matters and resolve complex Public Law issues.
  • Excellent networking and communication skills.
  • Working knowledge of Legal Aid Guidance for Public Law matters.
  • Extensive experience in Public Law-related work.
  • Advocacy experience is an advantage.
  • Proficiency in Microsoft Office and document management.



If you are committed to making a difference and advancing your career in Public Law, this is the ideal position for you.
