Employment Law Solicitor – Leicester

My client is a leading East Midlands Legal 500 law firm seeking an experienced Employment Lawyer (Solicitor/CILEX) to join its growing Leicester team.

Your role will be to advise an impressive array of businesses, not-for-profit organisations and individuals across a broad range of contentious and non-contentious employment matters, including employment contracts and policies, discrimination, TUPE, restructuring, settlement agreements and Employment Tribunal claims.

The role and workload would ideally suit an Employment Solicitor who has attained at least 2 or 3 years PQE, however due to the strength of the wider team, there is scope to consider more experienced candidates.

As the successful Employment Solicitor, you will manage your own caseload while supporting senior team members on more complex matters.

The role will involve advising employers and senior individuals on matters such as:

• disciplinary, grievance and capability matters
• redundancy and restructuring
• TUPE transfers
• settlement agreements
• restrictive covenants
• post-termination disputes
• whistleblowing
• discrimination and unfair dismissal
• day-to-day HR and employment law support.

Understandably with a role like this, strong technical ability, attention to detail and excellent client care skills are essential, together with a collaborative and commercially minded approach.

An interest in business development and networking is also important, with opportunities to attend marketing events, lead Employment Law seminars, provide case law updates and facilitate group discussions.

In return, the firm offers excellent professional development and on-going training, modern IT systems as well as a highly competitive financial and lifestyle package.

For further information regarding this Employment Solicitor opportunity please contact Andrew Cookson at G2 Legal or apply via the link enclosing your current CV.
