Employment Solicitor

Luton, Bedfordshire

Permanent

A very strong commercial practice is keen to strengthen its Employment Team and so is eager to appoint an additional Employment Solicitor to join the team and be based at the firms' headquarters in Luton.

The Employment Team is now keen to recruit an additional Employment Solicitor with anything from 3 to 5 years PQE who has experience of dealing with both contentious and non-contentious matters to include advisory work, Tribunal claims, whistle blowing, TUPE issues and changes to legislation. Whilst respondent experience is preferred, the practice is happy to hear from employment solicitors with a claimant background as long as they can demonstrate solid exposure to corporate support.

This Employment Team in Luton consists of two Partners and five Associates and the team has enjoyed phenomenal success in recent years as a result of accelerated growth and new client wins. The team continues to act on behalf of a host of stellar clients comprising a broad portfolio of corporate and commercial work across a variety of sectors to include manufacturing, beverages, retail and education.

Applications are invited from candidates with a minimum of 3 years PQE however, those that fall just outside of this banding will also be considered providing they have the relevant experience at a reputable firm.

Corporate support experience is absolutely essential as it will cover roughly 25% of this role.

An attractive package is on offer, including competitive salary commensurate with experience, generous holidays and there is an opportunity to gain valuable experience within a professional and progressive organisation. The successful candidate will be well supported within their friendly team.

If you feel this is the right opportunity for you, at the right time, please contact us immediately for a confidential discussion. Thomas Brown 0161 961 9000 or apply now for immediate consideration.
