Providing legal advice to officers on criminal prosecutions: working with Regulatory colleagues to identify offences and draft and complete prosecution reports for submission to the Crown Office & Procurator Fiscal Service (COPFS), including consideration of disclosure requirements, and liaise with COPFS on progression of cases.
Providing legal advice to Regulatory colleagues on permits: Assessing relevant environmental legislation, background guidance and procedures in order to advise officers on permitting requirements and provide advice to officers on permit conditions.
Supporting Legal Senior Managers and Senior Solicitors to defend legal challenges (such as statutory appeals) to regulatory decisions.

Respect for your expertise

This is a highly important role within our Governance, Performance & Engagement portfolio, which means you’ll need:

To be a Scottish qualified solicitor with current full, unrestricted practising certificate. LLB Degree and Diploma in legal practice or equivalent
Ideally, 2 years legal professional post qualifying experience
Knowledge and experience of application of legislation, ideally environmental legislation
Problem solving skills
Communication skills (both written and verbal) and ability to develop good working relationships

Support that goes beyond the workplace

We’re cultivating a workplace that supports not only your passion and your professional lives, but your personal life. So, you’ll find benefits that make a difference at work and at home. Such as:

Hybrid and Flexible working opportunities
Up to 35 days annual leave and 7 additional public holidays each year (pro rata)
Paid time off to support your Wellbeing and enable you to Volunteer in your community
Local Government Pension Scheme (LGPS)
Progressive Family Friendly policies
Training & development to enable colleagues to improve their skills, competencies and knowledge to perform at their best.

Plus, many more lifestyle benefits such as 24/7 access to an online employee discount platform, credit union facilities and access to a Cycle to Work Scheme.

Passionately you. Purposefully supportive

SEPA is committed to promoting equality, diversity, and good relations in everything it does – as a community leader, as a provider and commissioner of services, and as an employer.
