Level 2 immigration detention caseworkers

We are one of the leading firms in the UK for immigration and refugee law.  We are ranked in Band 1 for personal immigration in Chambers & Partners and we are described as "exceptional" for asylum and immigration matters in the Legal 500.

We are pleased to announce we are recruiting three IAAS Level 2 immigration detention caseworkers to join our committed team of over thirty specialists. We are looking for caseworkers with an interest in refugee law, detention work and general immigration law.

You should be accredited to level 2 of the IAAS and have one year experience as a caseworker in this area.  You should also have a very good academic record (2.1 minimum) and ideally be able to show a commitment to this area of law through your academic studies or previous work experience, including voluntary or campaigning work. You should also have a commitment to working in the legal aid sector.

This position is suitable for those already established in their career and those starting out (including those studying for their GDL or LPC part-time). For those looking to qualify as a solicitor this position can lead to a training contract.
