Due to continued growth, a fantastic opportunity has arisen with one of our clients in Leeds for a qualified solicitor to join their well-established Employment team. This is a rare opportunity to work in an exclusively claimant-focused environment and we are particularly interested in applications from confident self-starters who are not afraid to hit the ground running.
You will need to be at least 3-5 years' PQE (or equivalent experience) and working in the employment sector, be a self-starter with excellent communication skills and be able to demonstrate a strong academic background with excellent technical experience gained at a leading firm.
To be considered for this role you will have:
- Minimum 3 - 5 PQE
- Ability to work accurately in accordance with procedures and processes.
- Ability to learn quickly.
- Ability to organise and prioritise work, under supervision, to meet clients' expectations and matter deadlines.
- Ability to work under pressure.
- Ability to work on own initiative and as a member of a team.
You will be joining a highly respected team offering excellent quality work and a rewarding career as their Employment Rights Team consists of lawyers dedicated to advising on and pursuing employment and industrial relations issues in the tribunals and courts for unions, associations, professional bodies and their members, as well as private clients covering all business sectors, across a range of industries and job roles including horse racing, rail, education and the music industry.
The role could be hybrid after a period of probation but would be best suited to being in the office full time, due to the nature of our business and clientele.
A full package, market competitive salary and mentorship/supported progression will be offered among other benefits.
*Where a level of experience is indicated, this is a guideline only and represents the amount of time we would usually expect a candidate to accumulate the requisite level of experience. This does not preclude applications from candidates with more or less experience.
