There is an existing Solicitor dealing with Employment matters which is primarily focused on corporate support & employment tribunal work however you will be expected deal with a real mix of work that includes the full range of quality employment advice exclusively for respondents.

Other aspects of this role will include support and training to clients, business development and developing new initiatives such as seminars, workshops and tenders for new work.
