Job Description
About the role
Thanks to the generosity of our funders, we are seeking to grow our legal team. The new postholder will provide specialist housing casework and advice under the supervision of our Legal Services Director. Based in our offices in Llandudno Junction, the role will involve regular travel to community based outreach clinics in North Wales, particularly Gwynedd and Ynys Mon.
We are particularly keen to hear from paralegals with experience of relevant Welsh housing legislation and qualified solicitors with experience of legally aided civil litigation. Within the salary range, we anticipate a paralegal to be appointed within the lower half of the salary range (£27k-£31k), and a qualified solicitor to be appointed within the higher half (£31k to £35k).
Other benefits include 35 days annual leave (including bank holidays), company pension and a commitment to investing in your professional development. Wellbeing is a core value of North Wales Community Law, and we recognise that we all thrive when our needs are met. All staff have access to discounts, free financial and legal advice, and health and wellbeing support through our comprehensive employee assistance programme.
