Job Description
Goldfinch & Partners are delighted to be instructed by a leading employment law team on the Wirral, to recruit a talented Employment Lawyer. This is a rare opportunity to join a practice that competes with the likes of Eversheds for major respondent clients, but offers the feel and flexibility of an in-house environment.
About the Opportunity
* Work directly with HR directors of high-profile organisations, delivering pragmatic, commercial advice on a full range of employment matters.
* Join a collaborative 4/5 person team where client relationships are shared and everyone’s contribution is valued.
* Enjoy a culture without billable hour targets—success is measured by passion, teamwork, and quality of service.
* Office-based role with flexibility, regular social events, and a genuine commitment to work-life balance.
* The team offers the quality of work and clients you would expect from a leading national firm, but with a supportive, non-corporate atmosphere.
Who We’re Looking For
* 3-5 years’ PQE ideal, but strong junior lawyers and NQs with the right drive will be considered.
* Experience in respondent employment law, ideally with exposure to complex or high-value matters.
* Down-to-earth, collaborative, and passionate about employment law.
* Ready to work closely with colleagues and HR directors, sharing ownership of client relationships.
The Process
* Two-stage interview—focused on getting to know you and your approach.
