Contracts Lawyer

A really exciting opportunity has arisen for an enthusiastic contracts lawyer to join Legal and Democratic Services working right at the heart of the Council’s most important projects and initiatives.

You will be a qualified lawyer with experience of commercial contracts and procurement law and an ability to be a team player working with services across the council.

You will be a confident communicator with the ability to solve problems in a pragmatic and timely way. You must also be able to work both independently and as part of a professional team, with excellent client care skills and be able to manage conflicting priorities to deadlines.

This is an excellent opportunity to join a dedicated team of professionals within a friendly and supportive working environment. A significant part of the role can be undertaken remotely with a physical presence in Shropshire on a small number of days each month.

We would love to get to know you more so please give us a call if you would like to discuss this role or our team. For an informal discussion you can contact Miranda Garrard, Head of Legal and Democratic Services on 01743 252751 or miranda.garrard@shropshire.gov.uk
