She has a plethora of experience – from supporting vulnerable people and their families who challenge decisions made by public bodies, to advising the public bodies implementing the legislation. Hannah considers it her life mission is to ensure that those who are vulnerable are protected and their rights are promoted through the relevant legal frameworks. Hannah started her trainee legal career at a large city council and found her passion for the law relating to Adult Social Care and Health during this time. Subsequently, she worked for a niche specialist legal aid practice advising patients detained under the Mental Health Act 1983 and represented individuals in Court of Protection proceedings. Following this, Hannah practiced at a large international law firm advising NHS bodies on the law relating to Mental Capacity and Deprivation of Liberty amongst other things. Hannah is now a consultant solicitor, as well as founder of Mental Capacity Cat (@thecapacitycat on Twitter). Natalie Atherall, Senior Consultant at Sellick Partnership, recently sat down with Hannah to discuss the importance of her role. What does a typical day look like for you? No two days are the same as a locum adult social care solicitor. As a locum, you are often the person who will be given urgent, pressing cases or complex cases given your expertise. I find that I could be dealing with a Court of Protection case one minute, and then receive a general query regarding safeguarding or mental health matter from someone else. You may have an idea of what your week will look like, but then an urgent referral for Court is required and the to-do list is ultimately scrapped and amended to cater for urgent queries. It’s definitely exciting and rewarding, but I put that down to the area of law rather than what sector I work in, e.g. private/public sector. You have worked in permanent and locum roles, in both the public sector and private sector. What do you find are the key differences? Whether you work as a locum or a permanent employee for either private practice or local government, Mental Capacity work involves a lot of flexibility and the ability to adapt to change. What I enjoy most about being a locum is the flexibility it provides; I am generally able to choose the hours I wish to work, whilst taking into account the client’s needs. Working as a locum is definitely more flexible than private practice. Working within a local authority is very interesting, but also challenging. One of the positives is being creative and resourceful as there is more scope for this approach. In private practice, there is always a focus on billable hours. I find both working in private and public sector rewarding, there is just a different mindset and usual set up with regards to processes and procedures. What trends have you seen in the last 12-18 months, particularly in relation to the impact from COVID-19? During the pandemic, there was certainly an increase in general queries around deprivation of liberty, hospital discharges and treatment issue. The Liberty Protection Safeguards (LPS) were put on the back burner whilst the focus was to support those with care and support needs through the pandemic. Now, there is a real focus on LPS again given the Codes of Practice is due for public consultation any day now. I am seeing a lot of queries around DOLS/LPS now that the restrictions have lifted and Section 21A challenges to standard authorisations are becoming more prevalent again. You have been a locum for just over two years now. What do you like in particular about working as a locum? Ultimately, I decided to locum to explore other career opportunities and hobbies that I did not have the chance to explore fully as a full time employee, as well as travelling. I enjoy Muay Thai and wanted to spend a few months in Thailand. Being a locum provides this flexibility, although unfortunately the pandemic has impacted my ability to travel recently! In addition, I have set up my training consultancy, Mental Capacity Cat. I am quite a creative person and enjoy digital design and media. I wanted to combine both my passion for Mental Capacity Law, Community Care/Health and Human Rights with my creative outlets, so being a locum provides the flexibility to do this alongside practicing as a solicitor. Another aspect of being a locum which attracted me was the ability to move around various authorities and see how things work in different areas. Each local authority faces different challenges and you meet some of the most amazing people along the way! I would say I have made friends for life during my time as a locum – although you are not a permanent member of staff, you often find your colleagues and clients become friends by the time you leave! What do you find is the best part of your job? Anything Mental Capacity Law is my thing, but the best part of my job is knowing that every day I wake up and help some of the most incredible professionals on the front line every day, supporting people with social or healthcare needs. It’s an absolute honour and privilege to know that the work I do impacts the lives of real people, with real lives, and that I make a positive difference (I hope!) to those who I support and advise. What advice would you give other legal professionals that are considering working as a locum in the public sector? I wish I knew that this was an option in the first place! When I first qualified, I came across locums and wondered what it was all about. I wish that being a locum and working in the public sector/local authority was talked about more in university or generally, as it wasn’t until I qualified that I realised this was something I would be able to do. Working in adult social care is fast paced and hard work – but it is also some of the most rewarding work you will ever do!

READ MORE NEWS & CASE STUDIES The importance of our ISO 9001:2015 accreditation We are delighted to have been re-accredited with ISO 9001:2015. ISO is a quality management accreditation that is externally audited to ensure compliance with set standards. ISO 9001 looks at core business areas that need to be documented in order to ensure a robust quality management system. This includes: context of the organisation, leadership, planning, support, operations, performance evaluation and improvement. This year the auditor was impressed with how prepared we were for a remote audit! Sellick Partnership has held the ISO 9001 accreditation since May 2014 (where we met the 2008 accreditation standard, and progressed to the 2015 version in 2017). This most recent audit was an annual remote surveillance audit to ensure we are still meeting the requirements of the ISO 9001:2015 standard. Why is ISO 9001 important to our clients and candidates? At its core ISO 9001 is a quality accreditation. It gives our clients and candidates reassurance that we have robust procedures and processes in place which prioritise quality and continuous improvement. As a result we believe it provides a number of benefits for our clients and candidates; ISO 9001 is a mark of quality and helps us stand out from the crowd as a recruiter that values quality and service delivery. The risk management element of our ISO 9001 accreditation provides reassurance to our clients that we are considering our risks, and therefore their risks, and take appropriate action to reduce these. The regulatory and legislative requirements of the ISO 9001 accreditation mean that our clients (and candidates) can be confident that we are complying with all relevant legislation and regulations. The continuous improvement aspect means that as a business we can demonstrate a clear process for dealing with issues and complaints, and have a proactive approach to resolving them. Internal audits and issue logs means that we are more likely to discover any issues quickly and have clear processes in place to resolve them. Find out more about ISO 9001:2015 and our other awards and accreditations here. READ MORE RESOURCES Thinking long-term: how best to stand out as a candidate when the pandemic is over Undoubtedly, the Coronavirus pandemic caused a nationwide panic throughout 2020. From a business perspective, many were put in a difficult situation with their employees and their positions within their firms. Some businesses were lucky enough to be able to save their staff by transferring the skills into other business roles. However, at the other end of the scale, just as many businesses were sadly forced to make redundancies and decrease their headcount. Thankfully, we are now starting to see a light at the end of the tunnel and slowly many businesses are able to return to some form of “normality”, whether that be remotely or going back into the office(ensuring government guidelines are followed of course). This being said, the virus is still very much at large and there is still a lot to do before things can go completely ‘back to normal’. In the recruitment industry, we are now starting to see an increase in job demand, which is looking great for the economy. This confidence returning to the UK jobs market will put a lot of people back at ease and will result in an influx of job searches and applications over the next 6+ months. If you are in this situation, and are looking forward to your next opportunity on the other side of the pandemic, it is important that you are ready for this to happen and do all you can now to prepare. In this blog, we have provided some top tips on how you can stand out as a candidate once the pandemic has passed and further develop your career within your chosen sector. Be clear about exactly what it is that you want Have you thought about what type of role you want to be placed into or where you next career step will take you? Is there a specific sector that interests you and have you done your research to make sure that it is the right choice for you? It is important that you use this time to explore your options and review job boards including Indeed, Total Jobs and CV Library to see what career opportunities are available in your preferred location. You should also research the current market and look where there is a need for extra staff as you might get lucky and secure a role straight away if a need arises. You might also want to research different types of roles and figure out what transferable skills you have that may open new opportunities for you. Doing this will give you a good understanding of the market, and ensure you have a head start when hiring managers are on the lookout for their next candidate. Research your target companies Think about the role that you would like to be placed in and do your research on companies within that sector to draw up a list of preferred workplaces ahead of applying. When doing this it is important to ask yourself some specific questions. Are they reputable? Do they have any reviews? Can you see yourself working there and making a difference to both the business and your own development? It is important to take your time to create a list of companies that you would like to work for and review company websites to find out more information on the types of roles they usually have available and the culture within the business to ensure that you would be the right fit. Within your chosen industry, are there specific companies that are well known that you could contact for further information on their current vacancies? Make sure that you cover everything that you can when researching your next role. Make sure that you are organised Being organised is an important factor when applying for roles, so get everything you can ready now. You can use this time to make sure that your CV is up-to-date, practice common interview questions and work on your personal brand to name just a few. Having your facts lined up ready to explain to the panel who are interviewing you and having a list of contactable referees are also key things to remember when applying for roles. It is also important to develop a system to organise your job searching. Creating a detailed spreadsheet may help you to track jobs that you have applied for, where interviews have been given and whether you have or have not received a response. We have some top candidate resources that can help you getting all of this up-to-date and ensuring that you are in the best possible position. Utilise your professional network It is important to remember that job hunting is often about who you know, not simply what you know, so reach out to your network as someone else may know about an opportunity that is perfect for you. It is therefore crucial to use your network to your advantage and help you advance your career. Think about reaching out to previous colleagues, speaking to professionals in groups or attending virtual networking sessions that will help you build those relationships. As it currently stands, everybody is in the same boat, so it is important that we all come together to help out where we can. Reach out to your connections where possible and ask for help, you never know what might come up! You should also request information from people who you see posting information on job roles or current situations within your market. Speak to your current employer and seek internal advice so that once all of this is over, you can improve your skillset and advance your career to the next level. Review your social media platforms Over 60% of hiring employers review their candidates’ social media platforms and 92% of recruiters use social media to find candidates. Therefore, it is imperative to make sure that you stick to being professional and avoid uploading content that isn’t relevant and may be deemed as unprofessional. Think about the experience that you have gained in previous employment and make sure that your profile is built to the best possible standard – employers will be looking at all of your traits and transferrable skills, not just those in your current role. It is also really important to make sure that your social channels are up-to-date, so make sure you are regularly checking and amending where possible. Here are some additional tips to make sure your profile is up to date: Make sure that your profile photo is up-to-date and is a true representation of you; no filters, strictly professional Utilise content from your CV to boost your personal summary Obtain recommendations from previous colleagues / employers Update your LinkedIn status a few times a week, share articles, projects that you are currently working / have worked on, events that you have attended / are attending etc Thinking ahead to the end of the pandemic and remembering all the above will increase your chances of standing out from the crowd. You won’t be the only one looking for their next role once this is over, so it is important to take these steps to make yourself stand out from other candidates that are applying for the same or similar roles.
