Description

The in-house Legal Department of Historic England provides or procures all legal advice and services to Historic England and English Heritage. In cases where either the expertise does not exist in-house or there is not the capacity to do it, work is put out to a panel of external legal firms. We are seeking to appoint a panel of external legal firms for a four-year term to assist us to provide a seamless legal advice service to Historic England and English Heritage staff.
