Legal - Embrace Opportunities with Us
Are you a recently qualified solicitor or barrister? Whether you've just completed your training or have gained some experience, we invite you to become a part of our Dispute Resolution team. Collaborate with friendly and experienced lawyers who handle civil and criminal dispute resolution and litigation matters across various areas of law.
Open the door to continuous development through invaluable learning opportunities within our team. Collaborate with skilled litigators and acquire knowledge by working across teams with experienced colleagues in the Safeguarding and Protection teams, supporting the Council’s Families and Children’s Services, as well as the non-contentious service.
Engage with a diverse range of civil and criminal litigation cases. From general litigation to the realm of public law, you'll have the chance to work on an engaging blend of cases. As the legal foundation for different Council teams, you'll play a crucial role in providing exceptional legal insights.
Although your designated workplace will be our main office at County Hall in Trowbridge, we embrace hybrid work arrangements that offer flexibility and maintain productivity, ensuring the right equilibrium for you and the service. Regular office attendance is expected, and there may be occasions where you need to attend court in person.
Extensive experience is not a requirement – we're interested in potential. If you're adept at research, analysis, and communication, coupled with strong interpersonal and organisational skills, you're exactly the person we're seeking.
Applications from candidates who are in the process of completing their qualifying work experience and SQE qualifications as a Solicitor will be considered.
