We have an exciting role on offer within our Legal Services as a Lawyer (Children’s Welfare).
The Council’s Legal Services team is committed to providing a quality service to the Council, for the benefit of the people of Middlesbrough, and we are now looking to expand our welfare team by appointing an experienced Children's welfare lawyer.
You do not need experience of working in local government, but the successful applicant will have experience of children welfare matters, will be an effective team player, and have excellent advocacy, interpersonal and communication skills.
In return, as well as being an excellent place to work we can offer you a supportive environment and benefits such as home/office blended working, flexi working, generous annual leave, a great pension, and much more!
This role comes with the demands and challenges you would expect working on children’s wellbeing matters but it is exceptionally rewarding working together to achieve the best outcomes for vulnerable children.
