About the role

Are you an experienced Immigration Solicitor or Barrister who wants to use your legal expertise to make a real difference?

North & West Kent Citizens Advice and Kent Law Centre is looking for a motivated and compassionate legal professional to join our specialist immigration team. You will help grow our immigration and asylum legal aid provision, supporting clients across Kent with high-quality advice, casework, advocacy and representation.

The role includes Legal Aid casework, tribunal matters, judicial review where appropriate, supporting junior colleagues, and helping develop a service rooted in access to justice, dignity and social change.

We are particularly interested in candidates with:

• At least two years’ PQE as a Solicitor or Barrister.

• IAAS Senior Caseworker and Supervisor accreditation.

• Recent Legal Aid immigration advice, representation and billing experience.

• Experience managing complex caseloads and tribunal appeals.

Judicial review, public law, supervision, or voluntary sector experience would be an advantage, but we welcome applicants keen to develop in these areas within a supportive team.

Why join us?

• Work with a respected advice charity and growing Law Centre.

• Help shape specialist legal provision in an area of acute need.

• Flexible remote or hybrid working and a 35-hour week.

• 30 days’ annual leave including bank holidays, plus four Christmas closure days.

• Professional fees, CPD support and an inclusive, values-led team.

We particularly welcome applications from people underrepresented in the legal advice sector, including people from Black, Asian and Minority Ethnic communities and people with lived experience of migration. We are a Disability Confident Employer.
