Prosecutor

A Prosecutor tries legal cases against individuals in a court of law. You’ll work with police and other authorities to prepare for legal cases and present evidence during legal proceedings. Prosecutors may make decisions about whether cases should go to trial based on available evidence.

Prosecutors should be excellent communicators and be able to operate confidently in a court environment. It’s important you can follow correct procedures and display excellent attention to detail. Prosecutors must be organised and be able to work on several cases at one time.
