The successful lawyer will join a busy team and can expect exposure to a varied employment law caseload, spanning a full range of contentious, advisory and transactional matters. There is currently a healthy pipeline of Employment Tribunal work and broader advisory matters, alongside an increase in employment support arising from corporate transactions.
Working across the team’s Partners, the successful individual will have the opportunity to advise on a broad range of employment matters and become well integrated into the practice throughout the duration of the contract.
Applicants are likely to possess upwards of 3 years’ PQE advising on UK employment law, with experience gained from other notable law firms in the UK.
