Our duty is to make sure that the right person is prosecuted for the right offence, and to bring offenders to justice wherever possible. These offences include all types of serious crime including murder, rape, burglary, terrorism, domestic abuse and multi-million-pound fraud cases. We also work across borders to tackle cybercrime, human trafficking, and drugs smuggling, and use our powers to confiscate the proceeds of crime at home and abroad.
About the role
As Deputy Director of Legal Policy, you advise the Director of Policy on the coordination, development, and implementation of legal policy and guidance. You lead and manage the legal policy team, including parliamentary strategy and research, and set clear performance expectations. You work with the Director General Legal Delivery (DG Legal) team to ensure legal guidance is developed effectively across the Directorate.
About you
We’re looking for a qualified barrister or solicitor with experience of strategic legal policy formulation. You must have experience providing legal policy advice, input and decision-making.
