Working mainly for retained 'employer' clients, your primary focus will be on supporting them with their ongoing matters. This includes bundle preparation for trial, liaising with the tribunal and clients, drafting settlement agreements, drafting new contracts of employment, and occasionally reviewing and updating client handbooks and policies.
The practice fosters a friendly and collaborative culture with clear opportunities for progression. You'll benefit from hands-on support while gaining increasing autonomy as your confidence grows.
To succeed in this junior Employment Lawyer role, you will:
- Have at least one training seat or significant qualifying experience in Employment law
