We are the professional body for over 11,000 Scottish solicitors. As well as setting standards for and regulating solicitors, we have a role to understand and serve the needs of our members and the public.
At the Law Society of Scotland we are working together to achieve our overarching objective of leading legal excellence and we are striving to excel and to be a world-class professional body.
Our colleagues are our greatest asset and we invest in them through learning and development, the promotion of a work life balance and a culture supported by our values of respect, openness, progress, integrity and inclusion. We place great importance on our values; these were devised by our colleagues in 2012 and underpin how we conduct our business with our members, the public, each other and wider stakeholder groups.
If you can help us deliver a world-class service to our members and the public, we’d love to hear from you.

We advertise job vacancies and positions on the Council, our committees and working parties.

Respect
We value treating everyone with consideration and dignity.
Integrity
We value being accountable, responsible and professional in the decisions that we make.
Inclusion
We value having excellent working relationships with our colleagues, stakeholders, the public and our diverse membership.
Openness
We value being helpful, accessible, responsive and transparent in the way we work and operate.
Progress
We value continuously improving existing and new services.
