Senior Lawyer (SEN)
At West Northants Council, we believe every child and young person should have the opportunity to achieve their potential. As a Senior Lawyer (SEND), you’ll play a key role in supporting the Council’s Special Educational Needs and Disabilities services, helping to ensure children, young people and families receive fair, legally robust and high-quality support.
Working within our Law, Governance and Regulatory Services team, you’ll provide specialist legal advice on a broad range of SEND matters, supporting colleagues across the organisation while helping to shape policy, practice and decision-making.
This is an exciting opportunity to join one of England’s newest and largest unitary councils and contribute to a modern, ambitious legal service where your expertise will make a meaningful difference to the lives of children and families across West Northamptonshire.
Whether you are already working in local government, looking to move from private practice or seeking a fresh challenge in a highly rewarding area of law, you’ll find a supportive environment where you can continue to develop your career and professional expertise.
