Put your legal experience to work for Manchester

There is little else in life graver than a parent or carer losing a child from their care. How do we do this emotionally demanding work? It’s through teamwork – working together, trusting each other, combining our experience, and sharing our knowledge and expertise to get the right result. We’re not frightened to cry together, to laugh, interact, problem-solve, have difficult conversations and help each other. This promotes deep learning and a strong sense of belonging and common purpose, creating effective mutual relationships that achieve our team’s goals.

At the heart of everything we do is:

the safety and needs of children high-quality representation of Children’s Services. About the Candidate Are your skills and legal mind being rewarded?
