About the Employment Lawyer Role

Joining our outstanding team of Employment Lawyers, you will find yourself building exceptional relationships with a variety of private sector clients to support them on matters including:

• Advising on all aspects of HR and Workplace issues
• Defending Employment Tribunal Claims
• Drafting Contractual Documentation
• Restructuring Arrangements and TUPE

You’ll also work as part of our close-knit team to help build our brand and take part in business development activities.

About You

We are looking for a new colleague who is qualified solicitor, or qualified barrister, and likely to have gained employment law experience at a major firm or chambers. PQE is less important to us than a zest for the job, people skills and proactive approach.

You will need:

• experience in employment tribunal litigation
• to be able to advise on the range of contentious and non-contentious employment law
• a warm and positive personality

A client following and/or business development experience would be an advantage, but neither are essential.
