Consumer Law Paralegal

Are you a looking for a company that allows you to escape the monotony and aloof culture of a traditional law firm and achieve a good work / life balance, giving you the quality of life you really want? This is an incredible opportunity for you to join an exciting, modern and progressive company in a Consumer Paralegal role.

The Company

The company is a completely independent, not-for-profit organisation.

They work on behalf of the consumer and are a highly respected organisation

They have a commitment to providing unbiased advice to their members, and that is at the heart of everything that they do.

They employ hundreds of staff, who all work towards the same goal - make the individual as powerful as the organisations they have to deal with in their daily lives.

They have real purpose with their genuine passion for helping people and that truly runs through everything that they do.

The Role

They're looking for a Paralegal to join them at their office in Bristol, Somerset.

As a Paralegal, you will provide advice to the consumer and support the team of Solicitors in this, ensuring that you provide the best service to their customers.

This is a telephone and email focussed advice-line, but unlike other companies who do a similar thing, their teams are home to incredibly experienced people.

For instance, I have personally previously placed private practice Partners into their team so you will be surrounded by people with an incredibly level of expertise which is incredibly valuable at this stage in your career.
You will deal with all incoming requests for legal advice, be a key point of contact for the legal team.

Importantly, you will act as an ambassador of the Legal services this company offer and be passionate about helping people - the company isn't a legal aid service, but supports people who don't have the pockets to fight the 'big boys' by advising on their rights.

Due to the nature of the company and work, you will benefit from a fantastic quality of life and work life balance.

When you leave at the end of the day, your work is finished and you can switch off and relax, something that your peers in Private Practice will be very envious of indeed.

• This role will be based in the heart of Bristol.
• This role will have you working with an experienced team.
• You will deal with a broad range of people and varied matters and gain knowledge that will set you up for your career

The Candidate

• You will be a Paralegal with 1+ years experience in an area of law such as Civil Litigation, Private Client, or a general Consumer focussed area of law.
• You will achieve excellent work life balance and quality of life
• You will deal with some very interesting, rewarding cases and help individuals in the process

Salary is very competitive, and the rewards package is one of the best out there.

In addition to a competitive salary the company offers a generous 28 days holiday, life assurance and a fantastic pension scheme where they will contribute 11% after just one year of service.

Their office is in the heart of the city centre - a stone's throw from Cabot Circus and a short walk from Bristol Temple Meads station.

It's a very friendly office so expect to make new friends.

This is a full time position - 35 hours per week.

This is an excellent opportunity for a Consumer Paralegal to join and lead an excellent team with a real family feel and great career progression in Bristol, Somerset.
