  • Strong track record of claimant-side work, ideally with trade union experience
  • Excellent advocacy, drafting, and negotiation skills
  • Ability to work independently and contribute to a close-knit, mission-driven team
  • A genuine passion for employment rights and access to justice

What you'll get in return

  • Salary up to £75,000

  • The chance to make a real difference in the lives of working people
