Job Description & Person Specification >

Torbay is breathtaking, captivating, and welcoming, occupying a prime position on the south coast of Devon. Currently unprecedented levels of investment and the council’s own ambitious transformation programme have given Torbay the opportunity to capitalise on the area’s profile and many assets.

As a unitary authority, you’ll discover Torbay is a place where you can make things happen quickly. We have real momentum building, fuelled by a shared sense of purpose and ambition - which is clearly evident by our success in being awarded the ‘Most Improved Council’ at a recent LGC Awards. We want Torbay and its residents to thrive and are committed to making a difference in our community, delivering high quality services to local people.

We require an enthusiastic solicitor, barrister or legal executive to join our adult legal team. This is an excellent opportunity to support our clients by advising adult social care and community health teams within Torbay Council and Torbay and South Devon NHS Foundation Trust, providing legal advice across a wide area of adult services / social care law, including Community Care, Mental Health, Mental Capacity and all adult social care matters. As a more senior practitioner in the team you will deal with more complex matters within your caseload and advise and provide assistance on higher level strategic / policy issues.

With the opportunity of flexible remote working (hybrid model) you will be an adaptable team player with excellent communication and IT skills, and be able to work to deadlines supporting the team with a varied and busy caseload.

We would welcome applications from suitably experienced / qualified candidates.
Salary includes a market supplement of £8,256 p/a and pro-rata and benefits including the Local Government Pension Scheme, annual leave and flexi time.

This post meets the requirements of the Public Services Network (PSN) and therefore will require a Basic Criminal Record Check. This will show any unspent convictions and conditional cautions.
