Job Title: Employment Solicitor

Salary: £40,000 - £60,000

Job Types: Full-time, Permanent

Schedule: 8-hour shift

Location: Maidstone

Job Description:

Our client is currently looking to recruit a mid-level employment lawyer to support the existing workload of a busy team, with a significant emphasis on Employment Tribunal litigation, and to help to support the expansion of the team and development of the Employment and HR practice.

You will be expected to manage multiple files and multiple client relationships, often as the lead client contact. Whilst the role will report into the Senior Employment Lawyers in the team there is an expectation that you will be able to work independently on both matters and clients with appropriate supervision depending upon seniority and experience. There will also be an opportunity to provide support and guidance to more junior members of the Employment Law team and HR consultants and advisers.

You will be responsible for advising clients on all aspects of employment law in connection with (i) day to day employment advice (ii) Employment Tribunal claims and other contentious matters. The ideal candidate(s) would have experience of the following:

- Employment Tribunal litigation, including drafting and responding to claims, witness statements, and advocacy (at the preliminary hearing stage at a minimum)

- Giving day to day employment and HR advice by telephone and in writing to managers, HR, and senior executives/Board level

- Drafting contracts, policies, and other employment related documentation

- Advising on disciplinary and grievance matters, and conducting investigations

- Conducting negotiations and drafting settlement agreements

- Advising individuals/senior executives

Experience of conducting training for clients and supervising more junior fee earners would also be beneficial, as would a strong focus on building client relationships and business development.
