JOB TITLE: Employment Solicitor
PQE: 5-7 PQE
LOCATION: Manchester
SALARY: Circa £80,000 (DOE)

THE ROLE:
An exceptional opportunity has arisen for an experienced Employment Solicitor to join a rapidly expanding employment team handling matters end-to-end across a range of contentious and noncontentious streams. Acting for a diverse client base, this role involves the delivery of pragmatic commercial advice on a varied caseload including high-value tribunal claims concerning whistleblowing, discrimination and unfair dismissal, senior executive appointments and exits, restrictive covenants, restructures and redundancies and TUPE. In addition to this, the successful candidate will be required to mentor junior members of the team and engage with the business development of the practice.

THE CANDIDATE:
Applications are welcomed from Employment Solicitors possessing 5 – 7 years PQE, coupled with a solid history of managing an individual employment caseload and drafting. Confidence in supervising less experienced team members and effective delegating within a busy environment is necessary, and previous experience of advocacy work is preferable but not required. The successful candidate will also possess an appetite for client development.

THE FIRM:
This Legal 500 recognised firm offers to the successful candidate the opportunity to involve themselves with a varied, senior caseload whilst working closely within a supportive, flexible working environment commended for its approachable leadership. With flexible working arrangements, mentoring and structured development pathways on offer, this role provides the successful candidate the prospect of genuine career progression within the firm.

THE PACKAGE:
This role is accompanied by a wealth of benefits including annual leave starting at 25 days, bonus schemes, life assurance, birthday privilege days, flexible pension schemes and employee health plans. Furthermore, this firm is also offering hybrid working arrangements, mentoring schemes and opportunities for genuine career growth.
