THE ROLE:
Our client is offering an outstanding career opportunity for experienced Solicitors or Barristers seeking a change in career direction.

Your workload will be without doubt challenging but also varied, intellectually stimulating, and highly rewarding.

A combination of induction training, bespoke training modules, mentoring and on-the-job coaching makes the start of your career as a Senior Prosecutions Lawyer a seamless and well supported transition.

THE CANDIDATE:
This role is open to Solicitors and Barristers holding a practising certificate in England and Wales. You are likely to have upwards of 2 years of experience in criminal law, child protection law or domestic abuse and will be passionate about this area of law.

The ability to make solid and well-reasoned decisions is essential for this role, in addition to having exceptional written and verbal communication skills. Empathy and emotional intelligence are absolutely critical and your ability to vary your communication style to your audience will be essential. You will be expected to demonstrate a desire to learn new areas of work and an aptitude for legal reasoning throughout the interview process. High intellectual capacity and the ability to employ independent, logical thought processes will also be key to success in this role.
