Employment Solicitor / Associate / Senior Associate | London
2–7 PQE | Hybrid Working
Excellent work. Genuine autonomy. A refreshingly down-to-earth culture.
Lex Exec is supporting a highly regarded London law firm with the continued growth of its Employment practice.
This is an opportunity to join an established, collaborative team advising an impressive client base across both employer-side and senior executive matters.
The practice is busy, growing and benefits from strong internal referrals across the wider firm. The work is varied, sophisticated and offers genuine scope to develop your own client relationships.
The work
-
A broad mix of contentious and non-contentious Employment law
-
Corporate advisory, including transactional employment matters
-
Senior executive exits, negotiations and settlement agreements
-
Employment Tribunal litigation, workplace investigations and restructurings
-
Advising businesses, financial services clients, partnerships and senior individuals
-
Working closely with specialists across corporate, immigration and other practice areas
Why consider this opportunity?
What particularly stands out is the culture.
This is a firm that combines the quality and sophistication of a major London practice with a genuinely entrepreneurial, approachable working environment.
You can expect:
-
Sensible chargeable hours alongside high-quality work
-
Three days per week in the London office, with a pragmatic approach to flexibility
-
A supportive team, approachable partners and meaningful responsibility
-
Excellent training, mentoring and structured career development
-
Four career development conversations each year
-
Modern technology and AI-enabled working practices
-
A financially strong, profitable firm with ambitious growth plans
-
Genuine opportunities to contribute ideas and help shape the development of the practice
Who are we looking for?
Ideally, you will have around 4–6 years PQE in Employment law, although we are very happy to consider lawyers outside that range who can demonstrate the right level of experience.
You should be comfortable handling a varied Employment caseload, advising clients directly and taking ownership of your work.
Experience gained in a recognised Employment practice would be advantageous, but the emphasis is on technical ability, commercial judgement and personality rather than a particular firm background.
We are also open to suitably experienced Australian and New Zealand qualified lawyers.
Interested in finding out more?
I am working directly with the firm's recruitment team and would be happy to share further details, including the team structure, salary bands, nature of the work and longer-term opportunities.
All conversations will be treated in confidence.
