About the role

This is an exciting opportunity to join our Legal team and to make a real difference to the town, residents and local businesses. Crawley is a regional powerhouse with more than 114,000 residents, a £6 billion economy and Gatwick Airport, the world’s busiest single runway airport.

We have a good track record of providing high-quality legal advice and litigation services within the council. We maintain positive and collaborative relations with councillors, internal clients and other stakeholders. To build on that, we are always looking at how we can deliver our service more efficiently and sharpen our outcomes-based focus. With an embedded case management system in place and fully electronic legal research tools and electronic sealing and signing we are mostly paperless.

We are looking for someone to join our legal team to deal with disrepair claims and work with other departments in responding to such claims. You will be organised, able to process and collate documents required in order to respond to the disclosure requirements of the Pre-Action protocol and be able to keep accurate records of the disclosure process and cases generally.

You will also be able to work on a number of cases and meet the deadlines to comply with the Pre-Action Protocol for Housing Conditions Claims and the time limits required by the Civil Procedure Rules.

The role will include:

obtaining documents and information from various departments
producing drafts of correspondence
instructing expert surveyors including co-ordinating with the client department
producing bundles of documents for disclosure
keeping up to date records of steps taken and recording in the case management system
taking instructions in relation to correspondence received and experts’ reports
attending meetings
undertaking legal research
organising and maintaining case management files

This role may offer opportunities for growth and professional development from becoming involved in disrepair cases and the litigation that arises but also from working across a range of continuous improvement, legal technology and governance projects.

The Legal team fosters a friendly, collegiate and supportive physical and remote working environment. With a mix of homeworking and office-based working, we offer flexibility to the team including to our new recruits. Our team’s physical presence sits within our modern Town Hall that we moved into in 2023.

We aim to support those with family commitments or caring responsibilities. We also welcome candidates from public or private sector legal backgrounds.

Additional information

This role is a fixed term contract until 31 March 2027.

This is a part time role working 29.6 hours across 4 days or 5 days a week with a requirement to be in the office a minimum of 1 day per week.

This role is occasionally required to work outside of normal working hours and to attend evening meetings.

Employee benefits

We offer a generous employee benefits package, with a range of discounts, benefits and wellbeing incentives to suit everyone.

At Crawley Borough Council, you will have access to a structured programme of learning from day one, designed to help you succeed in your role and grow your career.

Our way of working

Our shared values and behaviours reflect the special nature of our council. We encourage all colleagues to put them into practice, whatever job they do. Take a look to see if we are the perfect match.

Safer recruitment

Crawley Borough Council is committed to safeguarding and promoting the welfare of children, young people and vulnerable adults and expects all staff and volunteers to share this commitment.
