Employment Solicitor

Employment Solicitor (3+ PQE), Birmingham

We are working closely with a leading national law firm who are looking to hire an Employment Solicitor with 3+ PQE for their Birmingham office.

The Birmingham team is part of the firm's national employment practice, which is Legal 500 ranked across several UK regions and acts for clients across a wide range of sectors, including sports, retail, manufacturing and finance.

The team is already busy, with the majority of work coming through internal referrals, so there is a strong and steady flow of quality work from day one. They are looking for someone who can hit the ground running and manage their own caseload, with the support of experienced partners and real scope for progression.

This role would particularly suit someone who values work life balance, with genuinely flexible hybrid working and realistic target hours.

The work will include:

• A roughly even split of contentious and non-contentious employment work
• Advising employers on contracts, policies and day to day employment matters
• Employment aspects of corporate transactions, including TUPE and redundancy
• Senior executive matters, including exits and disputes
• Grievance and disciplinary matters
• Unfair dismissal, discrimination and whistleblowing claims, including Employment Tribunal litigation
• Opportunity to be involved in sports sector employment work
• The ideal candidate will have 3+ PQE in employment law gained at a reputable UK practice, with solid experience across both contentious and non-contentious matters and the confidence to work with a good degree of autonomy.

Package

• Salary up to £70,000 (depending on experience) + benefits
• Hybrid working: 1 to 2 days in the office, the rest from home
