Employment nq solicitor

Employment NQ - Manchester

If you're coming up to qualification and want to build your career in employment law without sacrificing flexibility, culture or quality of work, this is a genuinely strong option in the Manchester market.

This opportunity sits within an established employment team that advises a broad range of commercial clients on the full spectrum of contentious and non-contentious employment matters. The work is varied, commercially focused and offers exposure to complex advisory and tribunal matters from the outset.

The team has an excellent reputation in the insurer-backed and SME market, with a steady flow of high quality work and strong internal support for junior lawyers developing their careers post-qualification.

You’ll work closely with experienced employment specialists on matters including:

• Employment tribunal litigation
• Day-to-day HR and employment advisory work
• Disciplinary, grievance and performance issues
• Discrimination and whistleblowing claims
• Redundancy and restructuring projects
• Drafting contracts, policies and settlement agreements
• Supporting corporate transactions from an employment perspective

This would suit a trainee qualifying into employment law, or a recently qualified solicitor looking for a role with strong supervision, sensible targets and genuine long-term progression.

There’s a real emphasis on autonomy, trust and developing lawyers properly rather than simply utilising them for volume work.
