Job Title - Head of Legal Aid and Billing

Contract - Permanent

Hours - Part Time, 28 hours per week (0.8 FTE) with some flexibility around working hours

Salary Range - £38,400 to £46,400 per annum (£48,000 to £58,000 FTE)

Location - London office - Coram Campus, 41 Brunswick Square, London WC1N 1AZ

About Coram

Coram is the UK’s oldest children’s charity founded by Thomas Coram in London helping vulnerable children and young people since 1739. Today, the Coram group helps more than one million children, young people, families and professionals every year by providing access to the skills and opportunities they need to thrive.

One of the twelve members of the Coram group, Coram Children’s Legal Centre (CCLC) is the UK’s specialist centre for children’s rights in education, immigration, community care and family law, and provides significant international legal systems consultancy. The centre is located on the Coram Campus in central London with a base in Colchester. We champion access to justice through information and advice, legal practice and representation, policy and strategic litigation. Our Legal Practice Unit provides advice and representation primarily under legal aid contract. Our Policy and Practice Change team promotes practice change through training and capacity building to professionals and secures systems change through research, policy and advocacy.

About the role

This role will provide leadership and management for CCLC particularly focused on the Legal Practice Unit’s legal aid billing operations. Through systematic and efficient management, the post-holder will play a pivotal role in CCLC’s financial and operational sustainability. The role will be accountable for maximising the unit’s legal aid billing in controlled work, certificated work and inter partes costs and will hold responsibility for the unit’s billing systems. It will also be responsible for private fees billing. The post-holder will oversee the smooth running of legal aid billing including through line management of the billing team. The post-holder will work very closely with legal, operations and administrative staff. The role will act as a key point of contact for a range of internal and external stakeholders including Coram’s central finance team who will support the role with grant fund management and overall accounting functions for CCLC. The post-holder will support the Managing Director of Legal Practice and Children’s Rights and department heads in the successful maintenance of our relationship with the Legal Aid Agency. Where appropriate they will be deputising for the Managing Director on legal aid and financial matters.

The role would suit a highly organised and efficient legal, or a finance or billing professional with solid experience of legal practice and a deep understanding of the challenges of legal aid. Whilst candidates with direct experience of legal billing (and more specifically civil legal aid billing) are welcomed, we recognise that this is a highly specialised and niche field. As such, this role could suit a highly experienced solicitor who appreciates the important role developing sustainable businesses plays in ensuring access to justice and who therefore wishes to move into practice and financial management. They will need an aptitude for processing large amounts of data, developing and managing spreadsheets and improving organisational systems. However, they will be well supported through training, an enthusiastic and competent junior billing team, the central finance team and an outsourced legal cashiering company, as well as a friendly and collaborative management team including the Managing Director and the Heads of Education Law, Community Care Law and Immigration and Asylum Law.

This is a largely office-based role in order to fully provide support to the billing team. However, some remote / hybrid working may be possible depending the experience of the candidate after the initial settling in period and there will be flexibility over how the four days will be spread across the week (within working hours). The team are mostly based in the London office and with one billing team member in Colchester so the post holder may require some occasional travel.

Safer Recruitment

Depaul UK is committed to fair and inclusive recruitment, and we welcome applications from people of all backgrounds. If a role requires it under the Rehabilitation of Offenders Act 1974 (Exceptions) Order 1975, we will carry out the appropriate Disclosure & Barring Service (DBS) check. We only look at information that is relevant to the role, and a criminal record will never be treated as an automatic barrier to employment. All DBS information is handled sensitively, confidentially and in line with the DBS Code of Practice, and we encourage applicants to discuss any concerns with us openly.

About Depaul UK

In the 1980s, high unemployment and steep inflation was contributing to a shocking rise in youth homelessness across London. Thousands of young people were sleeping rough every night, with many areas notoriously dubbed “cardboard cities” due to the visible rise in street homelessness. Appalled by the scenes playing out across the capital, a group of people came together to tackle the challenge head on. Led by Cardinal Basil Hume and Mark McGreevy OBE, in 1989 Depaul UK was born.

What began as a single housing project in North London soon expanded across London, Greater Manchester and the North East of England. Today, Depaul UK provides accommodation, prevention and support services to thousands of marginalised young people across the UK each year.

As our name suggests, the work of Depaul UK has been inspired by St. Vincent de Paul – a man who devoted his life to helping vast numbers of people throughout the 17th century. St. Vincent de Paul’s belief in the intrinsic worth of all people and his commitment to taking bold action remain central to our values today. Depaul UK now forms part of a family of Depaul charities around the world. We each focus on the specific challenges in our own countries, but we’re united by our shared values and mission to end homelessness.

Some IT roles ask you to keep things running. This one asks you to help build something worth running.

If you’re an experienced IT generalist, or you’ve honed your skills in a managed service provider environment, then you’ll understand the pace, the pressure and the constant context-switching. You’ll also know the satisfaction of solving real problems and making systems work better.

This role offers something more, a chance to go deeper, take ownership and help build something lasting in a place where your expertise is truly valued.

We’re Church Mission Society, a Christian charity with a rich history and an energising future. You’ll be joining us at a pivotal moment: beginning a major transition evolving our on-premise infrastructure and systems into modern cloud services. The person joining us will be at the heart of that journey, helping shape what comes next.

The organisation you’ll be joining

Church Mission Society is comprised of people who are passionate about mission and fired up about helping people follow Jesus. For over 200 years CMS has been at the forefront of global mission, living out the gospel of Jesus, seeing lives changed and communities transformed. If you join CMS, you will find an organisation that has been reinvigorated with a fresh vision to make disciples of Jesus among people at the edges, both in the UK and around the world.

A team worth joining

You’ll join a small, high-performing ICT team that takes pride in the unseen work, enabling others to succeed. Widely regarded as one of the most trusted and collaborative functions in the organisation, we're regularly sought out for insight that goes well beyond IT. That trust has been earned through years of quality work and a human approach to the people we serve.

This isn’t a role where you wait to be told what to do. You’ll be trusted to shape the technical detail, champion new capabilities and deliver meaningful change that staff across the organisation will feel every day.

An approachable, friendly and genuinely supportive team, we're quietly proud of what we've built together. We look out for one another, and when things get demanding, we show up as a team. We work hard, we enjoy the work, and across the organisation we're trusted not just to solve technical problems, but to bring thoughtful insight and steady leadership to bigger conversations too.

What your role will involve

Working closely with the head of ICT, you'll help shape the infrastructure that carries CMS forward, by leading migrations, shaping hybrid environments and driving the adoption of modern technologies, while keeping today's systems secure, reliable and performant.

You'll bring real hands-on experience across virtualisation, cloud platforms, networking, cyber security and disaster recovery to work that genuinely matters. And you'll do this in an environment that backs your curiosity, encourages experimentation and trusts you to find the best solution.

You'll also be the person our colleagues turn to as a first-line support partner who delivers a warm, approachable helpdesk experience, and someone who actively empowers staff to get the most from their digital tools through great training and onboarding.

What we're looking for

You're an experienced IT generalist with a broad, practical skillset, and someone who's comfortable holding the full picture of an organisation's technology while diving deep when needed. You may be working in a managed service provider or IT services environment and are ready to channel your expertise into one place, one team and one mission.

It is also a requirement for this post holder to be in sympathy with the aims and values of CMS.

Further details can be found in the job description and person specification available to download on the CMS website.

Our commitment to you

Our core values of being pioneering, relational, faithful and evangelistic are integral to everything we do, and we work hard to ensure that every member of staff is valued, supported and encouraged to continually learn and develop their skills.

We are committed to the safeguarding and protection of the people we serve, our partners, our volunteers, and our staff.
