London, UK, United Kingdom LAW SOCIETY Full time

The Role

This is an exciting and varied role that will draw on your experience in areas such as communications, project management, research, event planning and administration.

As an International Policy Assistant at the Law Society you will play an important role in undertaking research and monitoring international developments affecting solicitors' international practice. Your research insights will provide valuable input into consultation papers and briefings, and you will be coordinating our communication outputs across information bulletins, our website and social media. You will be involved in organising events and other stakeholder engagement initiatives.

Another key aspect of this role will involve the International Policy Assistant liaising extensively with other professional bodies, government departments, solicitors and law firms, as well as working with our Media and Public Affairs teams to ensure a strong and consistent voice for the Law Society and its members.

What we're looking for

We are looking for someone who has demonstrable experience of delivering high quality administrative support, project management and communication skills along with a strong commitment and enthusiasm for administration and research.

Given the importance of research in this role, you should be able to conduct reliable and relevant research into complex issues with the ability to translate that research clearly and concisely in reports and policy papers.

To be successful in this role, you will require an understanding of legal practice and knowledge of the legal environment and the role of the legal profession in it, along with experience of working in a policy or business development environment.

What's in it for you

This is an excellent opportunity to work with contemporary thinkers in a progressive membership organisation. The successful candidate will join a strong brand with a reputation for excellence and legal expertise, committed to promoting equality, diversity and inclusion, and a culture of trust, clarity, excellence and respect.

We offer hybrid working (minimum 2 days a week working onsite), a generous flexible benefits package, a friendly working environment and the opportunity to develop your career within a professional organisation.

Please note: if you are an internal applicant, Pay Policy will apply.

Right to work in the UK is required for this role.

The Law Society represents solicitors in England and Wales. From negotiating with and lobbying the profession's regulators, government and other decision makers, to offering training and advice, we're here to help, protect and promote solicitors.
