Whoever you are, whatever your ambitions, you can achieve
them in the Army.
The Army Legal Services (ALS) is a
specialist branch which deals with the ever increasing need to deliver military
legal support to the British Army. From prosecuting in military court martials and
giving legal advice on international, civil and military law to advising and
training on operational law, the law of armed conflict and the rules of
engagement.
What makes this job different?
Being a lawyer in the Army is no
ordinary job. You could find yourself advising the chain of command on the
finer points of international law in the middle of a law zone, while another
assignment could see you in charge of the decision to prosecute at court
martial. You’ll also benefit from the Army package of travel, pension, sports
and adventurous training.
You’ll receive the training and
support you need to succeed in your role (including being able to obtain CPD
points as required by your professional body), develop your management and
leadership skills, and enjoy a unique team spirit.
What’s on Offer?
- Competitive Salary and Pension
- Overseas Travel
- Challenge and Adventure
- Excellent Training and Prospects
- 30 days’ leave plus bank holidays
- Free health and dental care
- Comprehensive sports and gym facilities
- No billing or timesheets to worry about
