We have two exceptional opportunities to join the Anti Trafficking and Labour Exploitation Unit’s award winning legal team in 2024.

Lead Immigration Lawyer

We are looking for a dynamic and committed individual to join our legal team as Lead Immigration Lawyer, based in our London office. This is an exciting role, and will suit someone who enjoys using the law creatively and working collaboratively. The role offers significant opportunities for growth and development, to increase your immigration/public law experience and knowledge through working on emerging issues affecting survivors of trafficking. This role will be key to developing ATLEU’s extensive network of partnerships, including frontline organisations working with survivors, and developing training and resources which respond to survivors’ emerging needs in the context of the new immigration and trafficking law and policy. The role also brings enormous potential for developing systemic challenges and effecting positive change for this hugely vulnerable group.

The role includes the provision of immigration advice and representation to survivors of trafficking and slavery under a legal aid contract. We also secure funding to support the provision of specialist advice which falls outside of legal aid.

We are looking for a candidate with a minimum of three years’ PQE and experience of providing supervision. We would also consider applications from exceptional candidates who have a demonstrable commitment to this area of law and have at least 2 years’ relevant legal experience.

Closing date for applications for the post of Lead Immigration Lawyer is 10am on Monday 12th February 2024.

Lead Training Lawyer – Immigration/Public Lawyer

We are looking for a dynamic and committed individual to join our legal team as Training Lead and Immigration/Public Lawyer. This is a stimulating role, and will suit someone who enjoys using the law creatively and working collaboratively. The role offers significant opportunities for growth and development, to increase your immigration/public law experience and knowledge through working on emerging issues affecting survivors of trafficking, to develop  the capacity of support and advice professionals assisting survivors, with enormous potential for strategic litigation, effecting positive change for this hugely vulnerable group.

This is a pivotal role within ATLEU. It involves working closely across ATLEU’s team of specialist solicitors to capture learning from casework to develop  practical legal training and resources that meet the emerging needs of the wider sector and developing relationships with key frontline organisations providing support and advice services to survivors.

ATLEU has offices in London and Sheffield and we welcome applications to work in either office.

We are ideally looking for a candidate with three years’ PQE and experience of providing supervision. We would also consider applications from exceptional candidates who have a demonstrable commitment to this area of law and have at least 2 years’ relevant legal experience.

Closing date for applications for the post of Lead Training Lawyer: 10am on Thursday 15th February 2024.

For further information about both of these roles and how to apply please visit ATLEU’s website here.
