Job description

Employment Solicitor | 5+ PQE | Remote Working

Are you an experienced Employment Solicitor looking for a role that offers genuine flexibility without compromising on the quality of work?


A well-established and highly respected law firm is looking to appoint an Employment Solicitor (5+ PQE) to join its growing team. This is a fantastic opportunity to work with an established client base, handle a varied caseload of contentious and non-contentious employment matters, and enjoy the flexibility of predominantly remote working with office attendance required just once a month.


The firm has built an excellent reputation for delivering practical, commercially focused advice to both employers and employees. With continued investment in its people and ambitious growth plans, this is an exciting time to join a supportive, collaborative team where your experience will be genuinely valued.


The Role

You'll manage your own caseload from instruction through to completion, advising on a broad range of employment law matters while providing an exceptional client experience.

Your work will include:

  • Conducting initial consultations with new and existing clients, identifying legal issues and providing clear, pragmatic advice.
  • Advising both employers and employees on a wide variety of employment matters.
  • Drafting and negotiating settlement agreements and advising clients throughout the process.
  • Managing Employment Tribunal litigation from inception through to final hearing where required.
  • Advising on unfair dismissal, discrimination, whistleblowing, redundancy, disciplinary and grievance matters.
  • Preparing pleadings, witness statements, bundles and supporting documentation for tribunal proceedings.
  • Negotiating settlements and achieving commercially sensible outcomes for clients.
  • Keeping clients updated throughout the lifecycle of their matter with clear, practical communication.
  • Working closely with colleagues across the firm to deliver a seamless service.
  • Supporting the continued growth of the department through networking, referrals and business development activities.


About You

You'll be an experienced Employment Solicitor with a passion for providing practical advice and building long-term client relationships.

Ideally you'll have:

  • Qualified Solicitor in England & Wales with 5+ years' PQE in Employment Law.
  • Strong experience handling both contentious and non-contentious employment matters.
  • Confidence managing Employment Tribunal litigation independently.
  • Experience advising on settlement agreements from instruction through completion.
  • Excellent client care and communication skills.
  • Commercial awareness with the ability to deliver pragmatic, solutions-focused advice.
  • Strong organisational skills and the ability to manage a busy caseload autonomously.
  • A proactive approach and a genuine interest in contributing to the continued success of the team.


What's on Offer

  • High-quality, varied employment work with an established client base.
  • Genuine autonomy and flexibility.
  • Competitive salary and benefits package.
  • Supportive, collaborative team culture.
  • Clear opportunities for long-term progression.
  • Modern technology and systems enabling flexible working.
  • A firm that genuinely trusts its people to work flexibly while continuing to deliver outstanding client service.


If you're an experienced Employment Solicitor looking for a role that combines high-quality work, flexibility and a supportive culture, this is an opportunity well worth exploring so please get in touch with Rory Brand from Simpson Judge if this of interest.
