ISLINGTON LAW CENTRE is one of the largest Law Centres in the country. We are seeking an experienced IAAS Level 2 or above Asylum and Immigration Solicitor (preferably with Supervisor status) to join our specialist team.

This is an exciting opportunity to join an experienced, dynamic, collaborative, and creative team. We are recognised for high-quality specialist publicly funded legal advice and representation across asylum, trafficking and human rights-based immigration matters. The team received a Category 1 score in its most recent Independent Peer Review for the Legal Aid Agency.

We are deeply committed to legal aid and to securing access to justice for the communities we serve in Islington and beyond. We work hard to achieve the best possible outcomes for our clients, litigating where necessary at all levels of the tribunal and court system. Our casework and strategic legal work have contributed to important systemic change.

We are looking for an experienced colleague to join our core, community-facing immigration team, initially covering two consecutive periods of extended absence for 18 months for other colleagues, though the role is permanent. The successful candidate will ideally have 3–5 years’ PQE as a solicitor and be accredited as a supervisor.

Experience of working to Legal Aid contract processes is essential.

Islington Law Centre is an equal opportunities employer, and we encourage individuals from all backgrounds who are passionate about upholding the rights of the vulnerable and disadvantaged in society to come and work for us.

Closing date for applications: midday Wednesday 7 October 2026.

Interviews will likely take place in the week commencing Monday 12 October 2026.
