About LawWorks
What we do
LawWorks is the operating name of the Solicitors Pro Bono Group. We are a charity,
and our aim is to enable access to justice through supporting and developing the
contribution of legal pro bono.

We encourage, facilitate and celebrate pro bono across the solicitor profession in
England and Wales.

Who we work with
We work primarily with solicitors (firms and in-house teams), and also with law
schools and law students, and other legal and non-legal volunteers and
organisations.

LawWorks has around 150 member organisations, including some of the largest City
firms and international firms with an office in London, national, regional and local
firms, in-house legal teams, law schools and charities.

Who we are
LawWorks is a relatively small organisation with 19 members of staff (5 full-time) and
a small team of volunteers and interns.  We operate a flexible working policy, with
several members of staff working hybrid, or where appropriate, from home.

We are a busy and (for our size) complex charity, with a friendly team, a positive
ethos and a commitment to doing all we can to ensure LawWorks is a strong and
efficient organisation and a great place to work.

Our projects
There are a number of key strands to our work to support and facilitate pro bono:

•  We support a growing network of over 300 local independent pro bono advice
clinics across England and Wales. We work with lawyers, advice agencies,
charities and others to establish or develop new clinics, and provide ongoing
information and support, training and resources for clinic volunteers and
coordinators;

•  Our Not-for-Profits Programme facilitates the provision of free legal advice for
small charities and not-for-profit organisations, supported by volunteer lawyers
from among LawWorks’ members (see below);

•  Our Secondary Specialisation Programme supports the development of more
‘in-depth’ pro bono in areas of social welfare law. This currently includes an
unpaid wages project and ‘Voices for Families’, with the charity Together for
Short Lives, supporting parents and carers of children with life-limiting
conditions:

•  We support collaborative projects including: Pro Bono Connect (a project

which facilitates barristers and solicitors working together on pro bono cases)
and the Domestic Abuse Response Alliance.

•  We have launched new online tools and digital platforms, including an online
clinic called ‘Free Legal Answers’ and the Pro Bono Portal UK (with Justice
Connect, an Australian access to justice charity).

In addition, LawWorks promotes, supports and facilitates pro bono by providing
training and knowledge sharing events, organising pro bono awards and recognition
events, and engaging in policy work. We also work with regulators, professional
bodies and other stakeholders to encourage a supportive environment for pro bono
within a strong access to justice infrastructure.

The role
This is an exciting and varied role, offering the opportunity to make a meaningful
contribution to the pro bono and access to justice sector.

This role will focus on identifying the training and engagement needs of legal clinics
and their volunteers, LawWorks members, LawWorks staff, and the not-for-profit
organisations supported through our Not-for-Profits Programme. The role holder will
plan and deliver training sessions and engagement events that respond to these
needs.

The role will also play a key part in supporting impact monitoring across LawWorks’
programmes, helping to ensure that our activities are effective and evidence-based.

Key priorities for this role will be:

•  Work with the Clinics team to identify the training needs of legal clinics and

their law firm volunteers across England & Wales, and arrange regional and/or
remote training and other events to serve those needs;

•  Work with the Not-for-Profits Programme team to identify the legal training
needs of non-profit organisations, plan and deliver events such as training
sessions and networking opportunities often working in collaboration with
LawWorks’ members and umbrella organisations, and coordinate the regular
review and update of online training materials;

•  Work with the Membership Officer to plan and deliver events for LawWorks
members, including training sessions and engagement / networking events.

•  Lead the coordination of LawWorks’ involvement in Regional Pro Bono

Committee meetings, including arranging attendance, supporting
representatives, and ensuring that LawWorks is effectively and consistently
