Candidates with private sector experience must have a solid understanding of how local authorities operate and demonstrate their ability to transfer knowledge and skills to successfully deliver a service within a local government context.

You will be a strong team player and have excellent communication, drafting skills and the ability to provide legal advice to a variety of audiences including senior officers
