After a recent acquisition and the retirement of the senior partner, a law firm in Sussex specialising in conveyancing and private client work are looking for a qualified locum solicitor to act as their COLP and MLRO. You will need to be available for this from 1st April 2025 for a period of at least 6 months while they recruit permanently. This is a part-time ad hoc role with no day-to-day managerial responsibilities attached - the firm essentially just need cover in place to meet the requirements of the SRA and their lender panels. You must be a qualified solicitor with a minimum of 5 years' PQE for this one.

Emma Ireland

Emma Ireland LLB AIRP is a failed novelist and accidental poet who writes mostly about politics and social issues. She's either a bloody commie or a bourgeois sell-out depending on whether you listen to her Dad or those who strongly disapprove of Waitrose trifles. After studying law at university she chucked it all in to move to Italy and teach Italian business people how to do their jobs in English. After ten years of wine and sunshine, she returned to the UK and is now a recruitment consultant and freelance writer. At least until that unfinished novel makes her a millionaire.
