Employment Lawyer – Senior Associate

London / Hybrid 5+ PQE

A well-ranked London Employment team is looking for a Senior Associate to join a well-established, client-focused practice covering both contentious and advisory work.

This is a broad and genuinely varied role, split between employer-side advisory and litigation work. You’ll be involved in everything from day-to-day HR risk and policy advice through to running Tribunal claims, senior exits and complex, sensitive negotiations, alongside partners who will invest properly in your development.

You’ll advise a strong roster of corporate and institutional clients on Tribunal litigation, senior exits, settlement negotiations and day-to-day employment risk, with real client contact from the outset and increasing autonomy as you progress.

We’re looking for someone with:

  • Solid employer-side employment experience, both contentious and non-contentious
  • Tribunal litigation experience; some High Court exposure would be an advantage
  • Experience advising on exits, settlement agreements and senior-level negotiations
  • A commercial, client-first mindset and genuine appetite for responsibility
  • Strong communication skills and confidence building relationships with clients and colleagues alike

In return, you’ll get an excellent platform, a strong and supportive team, genuine autonomy, and real scope to build your own practice and profile over time.

Interested, or know someone who might be? Get in touch for a confidential chat.
