Job description

Shape Your In-House Career. On Your Terms

One of the ways in which we are responding to the evolving nature of the legal sector is through WBD Advance InHouse; our flexible legal resource which operates a panel of talented, experienced in-house lawyers who are made available to clients for secondments. Opportunities range from Legal Counsel to Interim General Counsel and project specific consultancy assignments and span a wide variety of sectors, giving our WBD InHouse Lawyers and Consultants opportunities to broaden and diversify their experience.

We appreciate that everyone has diverse career aspirations and that's what sets us apart. There is no "one size fits all" approach at WBD Advance InHouse, we give you the choice of how you would like to be engaged; either as a permanent employee, on a fixed term contract, or on a consultancy basis.

If you're looking to work with us on a consultancy or contractor basis, you'll be on a competitive day rate, without the ties. You'll be working with us on a non-exclusive agreement with a say in which types of high quality secondments you'd like to take on. We offer a mix of remote and hybrid opportunities, are and are open to part-time or full-time working arrangements to help support your work-life balance.

Who are we looking for?

With client demand continuing to grow, we're expanding our panel and inviting employment lawyers to join us. There are current secondment opportunities available and we welcome candidates with either contentious or advisory experience from either an in-house or private practice background.

To be successful in this role, you'll need as a minimum:

  • At least 3 years post-qualified-experience (PQE) as a Solicitor in England & Wales, Scotland or another Common law jurisdiction with a current practising certificate
  • Demonstrable experience in contentious and / or advisory employment work, acting on behalf of employers
  • Experience either working within or advising clients within the following sectors: Energy & Natural Resources, Technology, Financial Services, Insurance, Public, Government and Third Sector, Manufacturing, Transport, or Retail and Hospitality

If you're an in-house lawyer ready for your next chapter, or a private practice lawyer looking to transition into in-house work, we'd love to talk.

Discover how flexible in-house law can really be – with WBD Advance InHouse.
