About the role

Enthusiastic paralegal required to assist senior solicitors in our busy housing, public law and community care practice. This is an excellent opportunity to work alongside a leading team and individuals ranked in the Legal 500 and Chambers & Partners directories. The department is renowned for its work achieving justice for the most marginalised in society.

We are recruiting a paralegal to support senior solicitors with all types of housing cases, as well as judicial review challenges, including challenges to the Home Office, the Department of Work and Pensions, and in relation of age assessments of vulnerable unaccompanied asylum-seeking children.

Experience within these subjects, and other areas of housing, community care and public law, is an advantage but not essential.

There are opportunities for progression within the firm. Many of our solicitors started as paralegals before going onto secure training contracts and then qualifying at the firm.

How to apply

We prefer to receive applications by email, with a covering letter and CV, addressed to the firm’s Practice Manager, Sandra Hillard: Sandra.Hillard@osborneslaw.com
