Litigation Caseworker
Locations: Feltham, Solihull, Liverpool, Croydon, Sheffield and Glasgow.
Salary: London £29,750 – £31,950, national £25,750 – £27,650
Manage legal claims and help maintain an effective immigration system
As a Litigation Caseworker, you’ll help to defend the Home Office’s immigration decisions, delivering excellent customer service and helping to maintain an effective immigration system.
The Appeals, Litigation and Administrative Review team deals with all applications where an appeal or legal challenge has been lodged, defending those where appropriate and providing a casework remedy for decisions that do not meet the immigration rules.  
We are recruiting for caseworker roles in the Litigation Operations Team (Lit Ops) and the Specialist Appeals and Litigation Team (SALT).
This is an exciting, challenging and rewarding role; our teams handle legal challenges that are complex and can be politically sensitive. Some of your cases will have Ministerial interest and could help shape the development of UK immigration law.
Ultimately, you’ll be responsible for the end-to-end management of the judicial review process, gaining experience in litigation handling, preparing cases for court and managing cost conclusions.
Initially, you’ll develop your expertise in a particular area – perhaps human rights or asylum – and as you gain experience there will be opportunities for you to work on a wider range of issues. With the support of your colleagues, you’ll soon become skilled at spotting which decisions should be defended and which may need to be reconsidered. The work in SALT follows a similar pattern of pre-action correspondence through to formal claim and trial, though with the focus being on the lifecycle of money claims and settlements.
