Legal Reporter Position
If you have been called to the bar or are a qualified solicitor and are looking for a change of pace, then perhaps you would be intrigued by the opportunity to become a valued law reporter. Our client is a prestigious legal publisher with an international readership and requires a law reporter to attend a variety of hearings and record notes on potentially ground-breaking judgements, summaries, and rulings.
You will be required to take the initiative and confidently liaise with management on matters such as whether a case is worthy of publishing and allocation of time/resources. You will need to proofread, edit, and format judgements into the in-house style. You will be in constant communication with judges and court staff regarding approval for your law reports to be published.
Exceptional written and communication skills are essential. Strong organisation skills are also required to manage your time efficiently, meet deadlines, handle administration and archiving of cases, and work with team members. A comprehensive understanding of legal judgements and the ability to communicate this concisely in writing are necessary. Only candidates who are qualified solicitors or have been called to the bar (pupillage not essential) will be considered.
This role offers considerable flexibility to fulfill duties within the broad requirements of the position, including court attendance where necessary. Excellent pension arrangements are provided.
This is an excellent opportunity for someone called to the bar exploring an alternative career path or not currently seeking pupillage.
