What is a Legal Job?

Category: General Information

Legal jobs are usually defined as any job in a law firm, in house legal department or local authority/government setting. We help law firms and in house legal departments fill vacant legal jobs. These can include anything from a partner/solicitor through to a receptionist, legal secretary or general fee earner, although we tend to concentrate on senior solicitor roles rather than the more junior posts. Entry level jobs and trainee solicitor roles are usually not sourced via recruitment consultants.

Legal jobs cover roles for legal executives, solicitors, barristers, trainee solicitors, paralegals, legal cashiers and legal support staff, together with marketing managers or managing directors. Basically it includes any job that involves working in the legal profession.
