What you'll do
As a Solicitor, you will be responsible for managing your own caseload, including delegating tasks to a paralegal where appropriate. You will provide legal advice and representation primarily in relation to Housing Conditions claims, covering areas such as property litigation, general property matters, and land law.

You will be expected to take a proactive approach in driving and implementing improvements to the organisation’s response to Housing Conditions-related claims.
In addition, you will provide legal support to internal Peabody stakeholders on housing condition issues and broader housing-related litigation, including offering legal analysis on policy, procedure, and corporate matters. You'll actively represent Legal Services in a positive manner, contributing to cross-organisational working groups and forums, and play a key role in delivering the Legal Services strategy and supporting Peabody’s wider business objectives. You will also contribute to the development and delivery of the Legal Services training programme, as well as assist the Legal Team or other teams within Governance and Risk on special projects as required from time to time.
