Croydon is London's second largest borough—full of brilliant and diverse people, businesses, and places. As a council, we're undergoing significant change, radically reshaping and renewing our organisation due to financial challenges. We are essentially building a new council—focused on getting things right for residents while delivering services differently and within a sustainable financial framework.
This is a fantastic opportunity for someone seeking a new and exciting role. While local government experience is preferred, we also welcome applications from those with private sector backgrounds. We are looking for a full-time Employment Lawyer to join our Corporate Law and Litigation legal team and play a key role in delivering high-quality legal services to the Council.
The successful candidate will manage a varied and intellectually challenging caseload related to employment matters.
You will be a qualified Solicitor or Barrister with at least 5 years PQE, or a minimum of 4 years PQE with the Law Society Diploma in Local Government Law (or a similar relevant qualification). The grade is determined based on experience.
