About the Job

We are looking for someone to assist members of our busy community facing immigration team with running their caseload. This is a junior position which would suit someone with a particular interest in immigration and legal aid, who is looking to gain some hands-on experience in the field. The Immigration team received a Category 1 score for their last Independent Peer Review for the Legal Aid Agency in relation to their Legal Aid casework.
Individuals with a commitment to work in publicly funded immigration and asylum in particular will benefit from both the casework and administrative experience gained in terms of pursuing future careers as a solicitor or at the Bar.
We particularly welcome applications by individuals from under-represented groups within the profession, including individuals with lived experience of the immigration system, individuals with a disability, and individuals from a less privileged background.
This is a fixed-term 1-year contract.
Salary £25,000 pa plus 3% auto enrolment pension
