Job description

Employment Solicitor (Associate)

Leeds | Hybrid Working | 5+ PQE


An established and highly regarded law firm is looking to recruit an experienced Employment Solicitor to join its growing team in Leeds.

This is a hybrid opportunity, offering a mix of office and home working following the successful completion of probation.

The successful candidate will manage a varied caseload of employment matters, with a particular focus on executive exits, claimant employment tribunal litigation and supporting the wider commercial team on employment-related matters.


The Role

This position would suit an Employment Solicitor with around 5+ years' PQE and a strong understanding of the employment tribunal process. Experience acting for respondents or advising employers on non-contentious employment matters would be advantageous but is not essential.

You will be joining a supportive and collaborative team, offering an excellent opportunity to further develop your expertise and progress your career.


Key Responsibilities

  • Managing a varied caseload of employment law matters from instruction through to conclusion.
  • Advising clients on executive exits and settlement agreements.
  • Handling claimant employment tribunal litigation.
  • Supporting colleagues with employment law advice on commercial matters.
  • Delivering excellent client care and building strong client relationships.
  • Drafting legal documents, correspondence and pleadings.
  • Managing deadlines effectively while maintaining a high standard of work.


About You

  • Qualified Solicitor with approximately 5+ years' PQE in Employment Law.
  • Strong knowledge of employment tribunal procedures.
  • Excellent communication and client care skills.
  • Highly organised with strong attention to detail.
  • Able to manage competing priorities and work to tight deadlines.
  • Confident working independently as well as part of a collaborative team.
  • Proactive with a positive, flexible approach to work.


What's on Offer

  • Hybrid working.
  • Competitive salary.
  • Profit Share Scheme, offering tax-free payments of up to £3,600 per year (subject to eligibility).
  • Generous annual leave, increasing with length of service.
  • Employer pension contributions.
  • Private Health Insurance (following qualifying service).
  • Life Assurance.
  • Professional membership and subscription support.
  • Employee Assistance Programme providing 24/7 wellbeing support.
  • Regular social events and firm-wide celebrations.


If you're looking to join a supportive firm where your contribution is recognised and rewarded, this is an excellent opportunity to take the next step in your Employment Law career.
