Thornton Legal has an excellent opportunity for a commercially aware and technically capable employment solicitor to join a entrepreneurial practice as Head of Department. The firm is Legal 500 listed and offers excellent quality commercial clients, a fantastic working environment and long-term career prospects.
The reason for the vacancy is due to the relocation of the current Head of Department and the firm is in a Chester city centre location with free parking.
The client base is a mix of those based locally and national consisting mainly of start-up, SME and blue-chip organisations. The employment team offers a broad range of mainly respondent employment law services including general corporate support, shareholder agreements, employment contracts, employment litigation, restrictive covenants, redundancies, disciplines/ grievances and settlement agreements.
This is a rare opportunity in the current market, so if you would like to be considered then please do apply without delay.
The salary for the role is negotiable depending on what is being brought to the table from a client following perspective. It needs to be noted that a following is a good to have rather than an essential for consideration.
If you are interested in this opportunity, please apply through the advert or contact Joe Rees at Thornton Legal directly. All applications treated in strictest confidence.
Up to £250 paid in vouchers for successful referrals. Terms and conditions apply, please ask for details.
Stated PQE and salary levels are for guidance only. All applications demonstrating the skills necessary to fulfil the role will be considered.
Recent testimonial: I have recently worked with Thornton Legal and Joe Rees and was very pleased with the service provided. Joe secured me an interview at a leading regional firm after only a few days, and he went beyond my expectations by travelling to meet me in person to discuss my ideal job requirements.
