Employment Law Solicitor/Associate | Hybrid/Remote | High-Growth Team | Real Career Progression
If you're an Employment Solicitor interested in a position with variety, support, and real scope for development within an in-house environment, this opportunity is for you.
The position covers the full range of employment issues—from straightforward unfair dismissal and unpaid wage claims to complex whistleblowing and discrimination matters—with around 80% of the work being litigious. The team acts for both employees and employers, providing valuable non-contentious support including drafting contracts, policies, handbooks, and advising on settlement agreements. This offers exposure to varied litigation, advisory HR work, and advocacy.
You'll join a team known for its diversity of experience and background, including highly capable paralegals who’ve built strong careers without following traditional qualification routes. There's a genuine sense of collaboration, and you'll be encouraged to take ownership of your caseload, contribute to team performance, and develop your professional profile within a £3.5m revenue-generating department.
This is a hybrid role (3 days WFH), but the firm is open to fully remote arrangements depending on experience. Full-time is preferred, but part-time applicants (four days or equivalent hours) are welcome. You’ll need solid experience in both contentious and non-contentious employment work.
The department is committed to training and development, supporting 7-8 apprentice solicitors and offering 4-5 internal training contracts annually, contributing to a strong junior pipeline.
The firm offers a competitive salary and benefits, including 34 days’ holiday (with the option to buy more), an enhanced pension, income protection, group legal protection, health cash plan, and a culture of flexibility, inclusion, and work-life balance.
