About the role

We are looking for two motivated Legal Assistants to join our Legal Shared Services team, supporting either our Litigation & Regulatory team or our Property & Estates team.

These are excellent opportunities for aspiring legal professionals to gain broad experience within a busy and supportive local government legal service. You will provide high-quality legal and administrative support, helping to ensure the efficient delivery of legal advice and casework to the Council and partner organisations.

Working closely with lawyers and legal professionals, you will manage files and workflows, prepare and process legal documentation, liaise with clients, courts, tribunals and external organisations, and maintain accurate, compliant and audit-ready records. You will also support hearings, transactions and legal processes as appropriate to your area of work.

In addition, you will have the opportunity to manage a small caseload of straightforward matters under supervision, allowing you to develop your legal knowledge and practical experience.

We offer agile and hybrid working, a collaborative team environment, and opportunities to learn and develop your legal career while contributing to services that make a real difference to our communities.

About you

You will hold a paralegal or similar qualification or equivalent experience and have a genuine interest in developing your legal career within a busy and professional legal service.

You will be:

Organised, methodical and highly attentive to detail
Motivated, proactive and able to work on your own initiative
Customer-focused with strong communication and interpersonal skills
Able to manage competing priorities, work under pressure and meet deadlines
Skilled at building positive working relationships with colleagues, clients and external partners
A collaborative and supportive team player who contributes positively to shared objectives
Confident using IT systems and maintaining accurate records
Committed to maintaining confidentiality, professionalism and high standards of service delivery

Experience of working within a legal environment, including litigation, property or contracts work, would be advantageous. Experience within Local Government or the wider public sector is also desirable.

Most importantly, you will bring enthusiasm, a strong work ethic and a commitment to delivering a responsive, efficient and professional legal support service.

Join us to make a positive impact in our community by putting sustainability at the heart of everything we do, while living our values of trust, care, collaboration, confidence and customer focus.
