Court Of Protection Case Worker
Court of Protection Caseworker – Canterbury Up to £30,000 | Career Progression | Excellent Benefits
Looking for something a little different from your typical legal support role?
This is an opportunity to join a well-established Canterbury law firm where you’ll work within a friendly, close-knit team, build genuine relationships with clients and have the opportunity to develop a long-term legal career.
You don’t necessarily need to come from a Court of Protection background. If you’re organised, confident dealing with people and have experience that could transfer into casework, we’d love to hear from you.
What’s on offer?
- Salary up to £30,000
- Generous holiday allowance
- Perkbox benefits
- Full firm social events throughout the year
- Excellent training and ongoing support
- Genuine opportunities for career progression
- Friendly, close-knit team
- Well-established and respected law firm
- Greater independence and diary management once trained
And when they say progression, they mean it – someone within the team is currently progressing from Caseworker to Solicitor, showing the genuine opportunities available to develop your career within the firm.
What would you actually be doing?
Working closely with a Solicitor, you’ll help manage the day-to-day affairs and needs of vulnerable clients.
No two days will necessarily look the same. You could be:
- Speaking with clients and their families
- Liaising with care providers and nursing homes
- Dealing with utility companies and other organisations
- Helping manage financial matters and client assets
- Maintaining spreadsheets and accurate case records
- Helping resolve everyday issues on behalf of clients
- Supporting the Solicitor with the ongoing management of cases
- Visiting clients and care homes once fully trained
The role is office-based in Canterbury, but after training you’ll be getting out to meet clients and attend care homes, giving you more independence and the ability to manage your own diary.
Who could this suit?
Previous Court of Protection experience would be brilliant, but don’t rule yourself out if you haven’t worked specifically within this area.
You may currently work in Private Client, Community Care, legal support, financial administration, benefits/welfare or another casework-focused position. You could also be a Legal Secretary, Legal Assistant or Paralegal with strong transferable skills.
What matters is that you’re organised, accurate, confident communicating with different people and, importantly, have a caring nature and genuinely enjoy helping others.
A driving licence is required due to client and care-home visits.
Interested? Get in touch – even if you’d just like an informal conversation about the role.
Know someone who could be perfect? Send their details my way and I’ll happily have a confidential conversation with them.
Not for you? No problem – simply delete this and get on with your day.
