Most importantly, we seek applications from enthusiastic and adaptable people who are motivated to use their research and analytical skills to provide practical, solution-focussed legal advice to our internal clients. Local government experience is desirable, but we welcome applications from people from all parts of the legal sector. We will accept applications from qualified solicitors, barristers and fellows of the Institute of Legal Executives. Offices are based in the centre of historic Stratford upon Avon.
