Description:
A well-established law firm in the Birmingham area is seeking an ambitious Employment Solicitor to join its busy team, in a role which offers fantastic scope for career advancement.
This is an excellent opportunity for a solicitor looking to manage a varied caseload of both contentious and non-contentious employment matters with the opportunity to play a key role in the development of the department and, ultimately, progress into a leadership position.
You will advise both employers and employees across a broad range of employment law matters, including:
* Employment contracts, policies and staff handbooks
* Settlement agreements
* Employment Tribunal claims
* Disciplinary, grievance and capability procedures
* Redundancy and restructuring matters
You will manage your own caseload with a high degree of autonomy while contributing to the continued growth and success of the Employment team.
Due to the structure of the department there is flexibility around the level of PQE for this role, although it is likely that you will have accrued at least 2 yrs PQE or equivalent as the firm requires someone who can ‘hit the ground running’. Experience in a variety of employment matters such as those listed above is essential, whilst a track record of conducting your own advocacy at tribunal would be viewed favourably.
If you are an ambitious Employment Solicitor, associate or legal executive looking for your next career move in Birmingham, we'd love to hear from you.
To discuss this position in more detail call Greg Reid at Price Richardson or forward your CV in absolute confidence, either directly via the Price Richardson website or using the ‘apply’ link.

Where PQE is referred to this should be taken as indicative only and does not preclude applicants with other levels of experience who can display the necessary skill-set and supervisory requirements from being considered
