Job Description

Your new firm 
Our client is a well-established and highly respected regional law firm with a strong presence across the South East. Recognised in the leading legal directories for the quality of its employment practice, the firm is known for delivering commercially minded, pragmatic advice to businesses and individuals alike. With a collaborative culture, excellent quality of work and a genuine commitment to career development, the firm offers an outstanding platform for newly qualified solicitors looking to build their expertise within employment law. 

Your new role  
This is an exciting opportunity for a Newly Qualified Solicitor to join a successful and growing Employment team based in either Guildford or Richmond. Working alongside experienced employment specialists, you will manage your own varied caseload while also supporting senior lawyers on complex and high-value matters. The role will involve advising both employers and employees on a broad range of contentious and non-contentious employment issues, including HR advisory matters, employment contracts and policies, settlement agreements, disciplinary and grievance matters, restructures, discrimination claims and Employment Tribunal proceedings. You will have the opportunity to work with a diverse client base ranging from SMEs and owner-managed businesses to larger corporates and senior executives. In addition to fee-earning responsibilities, you will be encouraged to participate in client relationship management, business development initiatives, employment law seminars and training sessions, helping to further strengthen the firm's market presence and reputation. 

What you'll need to succeed 
You will be a qualified solicitor, or due to qualify shortly, with employment law experience gained during your training contract. Candidates should have exposure to both contentious and non-contentious employment matters and demonstrate a genuine interest in developing a long-term career within this specialist area. You will possess strong drafting, communication and client relationship skills, together with a proactive and collaborative approach to your work. The successful candidate will be commercially aware, technically capable and keen to contribute to the continued success and growth of a highly regarded Employment team. 

What you'll get in return 
In return, you will join a supportive and forward-thinking firm offering high-quality work, excellent training and clear progression opportunities. The firm provides a competitive salary and benefits package, flexible and hybrid working arrangements, and genuine long-term career prospects within a recognised Employment practice. This is an excellent opportunity for an ambitious NQ solicitor seeking exposure to a broad range of employment matters while developing their technical expertise alongside experienced practitioners.

What you need to do now 
If you are interested in this opportunity or would like to discuss it in more detail, please get in touch for a confidential conversation. If this role is not quite right for you but you are considering a move within Employment Law, I would be delighted to discuss other opportunities currently available. We would expect a lawyer with the stated level of experience to have developed the appropriate skills; however, applications from individuals with more or less experience are equally welcome.
