Would you like to play a key role in a forward-thinking council with exciting regeneration plans and an ambitious vision for the future? If you’re an experienced legal professional with an aptitude for people management we’d like you to join us.

If successful, you’ll work as part of our Senior Management Group and will have the opportunity to deputise for the Monitoring Officer. And, because we offer plenty of personal and professional development opportunities this role could suit somebody looking to take a step up to senior management or someone keen to make their mark in a larger organisation.

Legal and Democratic services plays a critical role, central to all that we do. We are innovative and commercially focused, with a group of trading companies helping us to deliver our medium-term financial plan, new homes and a stronger commercial property portfolio. You will have involvement with all of this, leading and managing a talented and committed team of lawyers and committee clerks as well as the Mayor's office, information governance and land charges teams ensuring that everything we do is supported by sound legal advice and good decision making.

You will be able to demonstrate an aptitude for people management, extensive experience in one or more areas of the law and a good understanding of local government. You should have excellent communication and interpersonal skills and the ability to take our Legal and Democratic Services function to the next level in service delivery.

Does this sound like you? If so, we look forward to reading your application.
