About the Role
Enfield Legal Services are recruiting a Senior Civil Litigation Lawyer. This is a fantastic opportunity for talented and ambitious professionals to join a friendly, committed, and highly regarded in-house legal team to help deliver quality legal advice, while making a real contribution to the quality of life and sustainability of the borough. Specialising in general civil litigation including Landlord and Tenant, employment, licensing, commercial litigation, judicial review, injunctions, ASB, possessions, and tenancy fraud, we are looking for individuals who are real team players, self-motivated, and flexible. Successful candidates will have a minimum of 5 years post-qualification experience in the relevant area and will be accustomed to carrying a heavy caseload with minimum supervision. You will possess excellent communication skills and be able to engage with people at all levels. Strong drafting and negotiating skills, along with a solid understanding of the relevant areas of law, are essential.

We work collaboratively and flexibly and welcome applications from all members of the community. Enfield Legal Services is a friendly and progressive team focused on delivering our clients’ objectives. We provide training and mentoring for the right candidates and can offer a competitive package. Car parking is available on-site and we are close to two train stations.
