Our client is a major global law firm. Their lawyers represent some of the world's leading companies and provide legal advice on a range of employment issues to national, multi-national and international employers.
Due to continued growth due to client demand, they are expanding their Employment team with the addition of at least one mid-level (3-4 PQE) Associate. The successful candidate(s) will benefit from a friendly and supportive team environment, the opportunity to work with a very high profile client base, notable and directory rated practitioners and global resources.
The team acts for a long list of loyal household names, most of which have been clients for many years.
This role would suit a commercial and technically strong employment lawyer who is seeking responsibility, client contact and a broad range of client issues. It will particularly be of interest to someone looking for front line experience of global employment project work, outsourcing/corporate transactions/ M&A, solid experience with discrimination, whistleblowing and other Tribunal and high court claims.
The team's work features a good mix of contentious and non-contentious matters, and although inevitably there will be some corporate support work, it is certainly not the main focus. The team is stand-alone and holds its own major client relationships, including (for example) one of the UK's major retail banks.
This is a tremendous opportunity to establish your career within a leading law firm. In order to be considered you will have:
- Excellent academics (ideally at least AAB grades at A-level or equivalent and a good 2:1 or better at a top tier university);
- Training and 3-4 years' relevant post-qualification employment experience, either gained from a well-regarded Regional, City or international law firm;
- The ability to demonstrate project management skills and to lead complex matters with limited partner supervision;
- A high degree of sector knowledge and commercial awareness;
- Excellent verbal and written communication and drafting skills;
- A self-confident, proactive, pragmatic approach to tasks and projects; and
- enthusiasm, motivation and commitment to building and maintaining strong client relationships.
Solicitors with experience gained in London are preferred, but high-quality candidates from top Australian and New Zealand firms (ideally with some international element to their work) would also be considered.
