To all Local Government Solicitors
The Local Government Legal Society Trust Ltd, provides sponsorship and grants towards the fees of solicitors and trainees undertaking training courses to enhance their skills and broaden their experiences relevant to an applicant’s local government work.
The Trust Board is made up of solicitors who currently work in local government or have recently retired having substantial experience of working in local government.
The Trust are seeking Trustees to join the Board.
The people we are looking for should be a solicitor currently employed in local government, who has been so employed for at least the last 5 years, or a person who has retired very recently having worked as a solicitor in local government for several years who remains on the Roll of Solicitors.
The successful applicants will be required, after a period of shadowing the current office holders, to take over either the Financial Director role or the Company Secretary role.
If you consider that you have the necessary skill set and wish to enhance the career of future local government lawyers, please send a chronology of your local government experience; setting out what contribution you consider you can make to the Trust and anything you feel may be of interest to the Trustees. You don’t have to be a member of LLG to apply, but if you are a member then a short explanation of your involvement with LLG would be helpful. Current Directors of LLG are not eligible to apply.
The Board usually meets about four times a year, and those meetings are normally held virtually by Microsoft Teams. Between meetings most of our duties are carried out via email correspondence and/or telephone for example when we receive an application for financial support. Travel and subsistence expenses are remunerated if the Board meets in person. More details of our work are set out in the attached Annual reports for 2021 and 2022.
Applications from underrepresented groups are particularly welcome.
If you wish to apply, then email your information to the email address below by Monday 31 July 2023.
