Family Locum, 5+ PQE, Bedfordshire– Head of Department cover required for 6 week period – exclusively private family work.
JOB TITLE: Family Locum
PQE: 5+
LOCATION: Bedfordshire
THE ROLE:
A busy high street practice requires the services of an experienced Family Locum to assist them on a short-term basis from mid-April. Covering a period of extended leave for the Head of Family, the successful Family Locum will take a pro-active approach to progressing the caseload in the absence of the fee earner and ensuring the exceptional levels of client care are maintained during this period. The caseload is exclusively privately funded work, with a particular emphasis on private children matters and high net worth financial cases.
THE CANDIDATE:
A qualified Solicitor, Barrister or Filex with upwards of 5 years PQE, you will be highly experienced in private family matters including private children cases. Previous experience in handling high value cases would be helpful but is not essential. You will be based locally to the role, or willing to base yourself in the Bedfordshire area for the duration of the assignment as the role requires the successful locum to perform their duties within the office environment.
