I've a friend who is a qualified barrister in Ireland, due to family relocation she is now living in Yorkshire and looking for employment in the legal field (I understand that you can't be a barrister in the UK without having requalified?), would love to hear some advice which I could offer to kickstart her career over here, perhaps something which she hasn't already considered.

My understanding is that she is very good at her job and would be an asset to any organisation.

Any hints, tips, offers and banter welcome biggrin

PH disclaimer #1 no pics

PH disclaimer #2 she is my best mates GF so I've no other interest.

Are they interested in working for a well established software developer in the legal market?

Eclipse Legal are often looking for people and are based in Bradford. www.eclipselegal.co.uk

Don't know if they have any openings at the moment but they do employ a number of legally qualified staff (not for legal practice).

Thanks :-)

Just the kind of suggestion that I can pass on.

New CCGs and CSUs running large amounts of large contracts may be of interest to her. Keep an eye on NHS Jobs.
