  • Join one of the largest family teams in the region, with Legal 500-ranked care work
  • 30 days’ holiday, flexible working and a genuinely supportive team culture
  • Run meaningful public children work with strong supervision and no “sink or swim” feel

This Rotherham-based Care Solicitor role offers the chance to join a large, collaborative family team where people genuinely support each other across offices.

You’ll be handling complex child law matters, including care proceedings, pre-proceedings, child protection, special guardianship, fostering and adoption. There may also be some private children work.

The team is well-established, supportive and used to sharing workloads, covering hearings and helping each other when needed. You’ll be trusted to build your caseload at a sensible pace, with an initial lead-in target rather than full targets from day one.

Who we’re looking for

  • Solid understanding of childcare law
  • Experience managing or assisting on public law children matters
  • Ability to run files from start to finish, or readiness to build towards this
  • Collaborative and team-focused approach
  • Full-time or part-time from 3 days considered
  • Advocacy experience (Desired)
  • Children Law Accreditation (Desired)
  • Friendly, caring and client-focused personality (Desired)


What you’ll be doing

  • Managing a caseload of care and child protection matters
  • Handling pre-proceedings and PLO meetings
  • Advising on special guardianship, fostering and adoption matters
  • Conducting your own advocacy where appropriate
  • Delivering strong client care throughout
  • Supporting colleagues across Rotherham and Sheffield


Salary & Benefits

  • 30 days’ holiday plus bank holidays
  • Christmas closure not taken from holiday entitlement
  • Flexible working, including potential for 2 days from home
  • Flexitime with core hours
  • Clear progression route from NQ through to senior roles
  • Supportive directors and approachable leadership
  • Strong family-feel culture
  • Legal 500-ranked team
  • Excellent long-term stability and progression
