Employment Associate/Senior Associate

Job Description

✨ Employment Lawyer 2PQE+ – Join a Growing, Entrepreneurial City Firm ✨

Are you an ambitious Employment Lawyer looking for a role where you can genuinely shape your career? Our client — a dynamic, mid‑sized City law firm with big ambitions — is expanding its Employment team and is looking for a talented solicitor to join them.

This is a rare opportunity to step into a role with real variety, real influence, and real progression.

🌟 The Opportunity

You’ll work across a genuinely mixed caseload, advising both employers and senior employees on a blend of contentious and non‑contentious matters.

A major part of the role involves corporate support — including employment due diligence on acquisitions, TUPE advice, and strategic workforce planning for fast‑growing businesses.

If you enjoy combining technical excellence with commercial problem‑solving, you’ll thrive here.

💼 What You’ll Be Doing

  • Advising on Employment Tribunal claims, disputes, grievances, and negotiated exits
  • Drafting contracts, policies, and day‑to‑day HR advisory work
  • Leading employment due diligence on corporate transactions
  • Supporting on TUPE, reorganisations, and workforce change projects
  • Building strong client relationships with entrepreneurial and high‑growth businesses
  • Contributing to business development and the growth of the practice

🚀 What Makes This Role Different

  • Entrepreneurial culture: Your ideas matter — and you’ll have the autonomy to run with them
  • Balanced workload: A true mix of employer/employee and contentious/non‑contentious work
  • High‑quality corporate support: Regular involvement in acquisitions and strategic projects
  • Clear progression: A growing team with space for you to step up
  • Modern, collaborative environment: No stuffy hierarchy, just smart people doing great work

🎯 Who We’re Looking For

  • An England and Wales qualified solicitor with solid employment law experience
  • Exposure to corporate support work (or a strong desire to develop it)
  • Commercially minded, confident, and solutions‑focused
  • Someone who enjoys working with entrepreneurial clients
  • A team player who wants to grow with the practice

📩 Interested?

If you’re ready to join a firm where you can build, influence, and grow, we’d love to hear from you.
