The focus being commercial contracts covered by the Public Contracts Regulations. The scope of legal advice includes support with works and services agreements to all directorates of the Council dealing with estate regeneration, public health, leisure, education and other matters. We require lawyers with excellent professional knowledge, with good understanding of governance and an attention to detail. Inevitably you will demonstrate resilience and tenacity but above all you must have a real enthusiasm for this area of work.

    This is an exciting time to join the London Borough of Hackney, a place that celebrates diversity and where everyone can feel valued, included and involved. If you are a person who will truly live our organisational values: being open, ambitious, pioneering, inclusive, proactive and proud – proud of Hackney, of the Council, and of the work we do – then we would love to hear from you.

    If you would like to have an informal chat about about the role please contact either Patrick Rodger (Senior Lawyer) on or Georgia Lazari Team Leader (Places) on
