The Role

We are looking for an enthusiastic, hardworking Lawyer to take on a leadership role within our Litigation and Housing Team.

We are particularly seeking someone with experience in public sector, housing law, including advising on housing policy and procedures as well as conducting or overseeing housing‑related litigation. There will be scope to develop skills in the other areas covered by the team which include general civil and commercial litigation, public law, education, employment, and wider local government matters.

The Team

You will join a team of experienced Lawyers, Legal Officers, and Paralegals supported by a dedicated Business Support Team.

Development and Progression

We place a strong emphasis on training and personal development and will support you to be the best you can be. This role is an excellent springboard into senior legal management.

What You Will Bring

You will be a qualified Solicitor or Barrister or a Fellow of the Institute of Legal Executives with a current practising certificate in England and Wales.

You will be creative, energetic and well‑organised, able to manage a personal caseload, and confident in leading, supervising and mentoring less‑senior colleagues.

Experience Required

You will have substantial experience in civil litigation and public sector housing practice, plus desirable experience in any of the following:

Commercial Litigation
Property Litigation
Local Government Law
Education Law
Employment Law
Judicial Review

Your experience will have been gained within the jurisdiction of England and Wales.

Experience of supervising or managing staff — or the aptitude to do so — is also required.

Your Benefits

Kirklees Council offers a comprehensive benefits package, including:

28.5 days annual leave, rising to 32.5 after 5 years’ service (plus bank holidays)
Cycle to Work scheme
Travel and parking discounts
Employee‑friendly policies, including carer support and exceptional maternity and paternity leave
Local Government Pension — an exceptionally attractive defined benefit scheme
Life assurance from day one
Access to Employee Healthcare services (counselling, physiotherapy, health assessments)
Flexible and hybrid working supported by modern IT systems
Modern, spacious office environment
High‑quality supervision and management support
A professional culture of proactive advice and collaboration
Payment of professional fees
A strong commitment to ongoing development, mentoring and training — all managers in Legal Services are experienced, highly regarded lawyers committed to your growth and advancement.
