Job Description

The new city firm where everyone's a partner

At Hillingdon we've created the dynamic of a private law firm inside a public sector organisation. We're the first local authority to restructure its Legal Services department so that it mirrors private sector working practices. We're changing the way we think, the way we work, and the way we deliver legal advice. Top class professionals are joining us from private practice, attracted by the wealth of resources, the extraordinary range of work, the clarity of the structure, the quality of the training and the scope for career development... not to mention amazingly generous holidays and a great work/life balance. Above all though, they can sense that we've created a new model that others will want to follow - and here's the chance to be in at the start and shape its success. You could be one of them.

You'll assist (and deputise for) the Principal Lawyer in managing the provision of legal advice to Housing Services, Hillingdon Homes, Council Departments and Members. We'll also look to you for leadership in developing and nurturing a culture of professional quality service in keeping with our new structure and strategy.

A qualified Solicitor, Barrister or Legal Executive with excellent advocacy skills and recent experience in County and Magistrates Courts, you must have solid experience and knowledge of Housing and/or Property Law, especially in the public housing sector, plus an understanding of a local authority's duties towards asylum seekers.
