If you've reached the point where you're wondering whether there might be something better out there, it's worth reading on.
This is an opportunity to join a highly regarded Employment team where quality work and quality people go hand in hand.
We're working with a highly regarded, Tier 1 Legal 500 Employment team that continues to go from strength to strength. They're now looking to welcome an ambitious Employment Solicitor (1-5 PQE) into a collaborative and supportive team that is known not only for the quality of its work but for the quality of its people.
Whether you're actively looking or simply curious about what's out there, this is the sort of opportunity that's worth a conversation.
Why This Role Stands Out:
You'll join a well-established team advising a diverse client base ranging from household names and international businesses through to owner-managed companies and growing organisations. The work is varied, commercially focused and often complex, covering everything from Employment Tribunal litigation and workplace investigations to restructures, TUPE projects and strategic HR advisory work.
Importantly, you'll be trusted with responsibility from day one. You'll work closely with experienced Partners and senior lawyers who are genuinely invested in developing the next generation of talent, giving you the opportunity to accelerate your progression whilst building your own profile in the market.
The Team:
If you've ever felt like just another fee earner, this could be a refreshing change.
The team has built a reputation for being approachable, down-to-earth and highly collaborative. There is a real emphasis on sharing knowledge, supporting one another and creating an environment where people can develop their careers without sacrificing their wellbeing.
It's a team that celebrates success together, encourages business development and gives lawyers the freedom to have a voice in client relationships and strategic discussions.
What You Will Be Doing:
Advising employers on a broad range of contentious and non-contentious employment matters
Supporting clients through disciplinary, grievance and internal workplace procedures
Handling Employment Tribunal claims and advocacy opportunities
Advising on TUPE, restructures and organisational change projects
Drafting settlement agreements and providing strategic HR support
Building strong client relationships and contributing to seminars, networking and business development initiatives
Working alongside highly experienced Employment specialists on complex, high-profile matters
What We Are Looking For:
Qualified Solicitor with approximately 1-5 years' PQE in Employment law
Strong technical knowledge coupled with commercial awareness
Excellent communication and relationship-building skills
Someone who enjoys working collaboratively and wants to continue developing their expertise
An interest in business development and becoming a trusted adviser to clients
What Is in It for You?
Bonus scheme
High-quality, varied client work
Clear progression opportunities
Supportive and approachable leadership team
Tier 1 Legal 500 Employment team
Private medical cover, life assurance 5x salary, season travel loan and more
Enhanced annual leave + birthday leave (buy/sell 5 days)
Wellbeing initiatives and a people-focused culture
A firm that combines high standards with a friendly, modern approach to working
If you're wondering whether there might be something better out there than your current role, this could be exactly the chat worth having!
