Criminal and Prosecutions Specialist Needed!
£££ - flexible depending upon experience.
We have been asked to help one of our main clients recruit a locum criminal and prosecutions lawyer. This is an ideal opportunity for an experienced criminal specialist to join a large in‑house public sector team. You will work within the Legal and Governance directorate, managing your own cases and the conduct of all related advocacy.
Responsibilities
* Handle a criminal caseload from start to finish, including food hygiene and safety prosecutions, licensing matters, taxi licences, and environmental criminal matters.
* Private Hire Taxi Appeal hearings.
* Draft summons, indictments, case summaries and disclosure requests.
* Attend Magistrates Court hearings, committees, and meetings, including dealing with court lists.
The role will be worked on a hybrid basis, attending court hearings as and when necessary in the Birmingham area. The ideal candidate will have experience in licensing and contentious regulatory matters across the public sector. Lawyers from private practice seeking to move into the public sphere are encouraged to apply. This is an opportunity for a criminal solicitor with a private practice background to move into a new sector and gain a 360‑degree view of their specialist area of the law.
Travel / Location
Applicants must be able to travel to court in central Birmingham on a weekly basis.
