JOB TITLE: Employment Solicitor
PQE REQUIRED: 2+
LOCATION: West Midlands / Hybrid Basis
HOURLY RATE: £Competitive

THE ROLE:
An excellent opportunity has become available to enhance your career within a highly regarded organisation, providing interim cover for a period of at least 2-3 months. The successful Employment Solicitor will be responsible for a varied caseload of both contentious and non-contentious employment matters with some exposure to some Personal Injury work. You will undertake the representation, including advocacy when appropriate in tribunals and courts, internal hearing and other procedures when required. Excellent team working skills are imperative to this role.

THE CANDIDATE:
Applications are welcomed from qualified Solicitors with a current practicing certificate and from those who possess a minimum of two years PQE in Employment Law. You will ideally have some experience within Claimant Personal Injury; however, this is not essential. Your expertise will span both contentious and non-contentious matters and you will thrive in an advisory role. You may have gained previous experience from either a private practice or public sector background, and you will have ideally gained some experience of working on union-related matters. This is an office-based role for 35 hours a week and boasts market leading annual leave entitlement. They have a number of regional offices and offer an interesting variety of work.
 £500 referral fee bonus (T&C’s apply).
