Solicitor

Centre 70 is a successful charity, established in 1970. We offer a range of specialist advice, counselling and wellbeing support to people in Lambeth and surrounding areas at our centre and at outreach locations (presently remote working). We have specialist Debt, Housing and Benefits projects and a dedicated Utilities Debt advice project. We also provide Student Finance and Grant Advice. We have a Counselling and Wellbeing service. We are therefore able to provide person centred holistic help to clients.

We are seeking a Principal Housing Solicitor to work in our small friendly housing team to provide quality specialist advice and casework. Advice is provided mainly through our LAA housing contract. The work will be varied and rewarding. We encourage flexible working including working from home so this post could suit someone who does not reside near to our main office and who would only want to work in the office minimal time. We strive to have good working conditions and that is reflected in the high level of staff retention and those that have returned to work at C70.
