I'm acting for a well rated but small firm which has a strong brand in Employment Law, all services being provided from Leeds but to a national client base of Employer clients. They are proudly not an overly corporate firm, rather they like personalities and people with good communication skills and who enjoy client contact.
They have a relaxed culture, they don't manage by targets, and they want someone to enjoy being part of the business. At their core is technical competence, they know what they're good at and are very confident of their offering to some very significant clients.
Having won a substantial amount of new work they're looking for at least one additional Employment Solicitor with a base level of PQE such as to be able to run files at their own level, be that 2yrsPQE or substantially more - they can craft the caseload around you. Budget will be according to experience but they're happy to pay strongly for technical competency.
Full-time or part-time will work. They attend the office in Leeds on a hybrid basis but given that it is a small team they do like everyone to be in a few times a week so this isn't intended to be a remote role with occasional attendance.
Marketing is something of a collective effort, and they'd really like someone who'd enjoy adding to the brand's visibility in the market. However, this might be more about involvement in digital and online presence and less about having to commit your time to attending events outside of your working hours. If marketing really isn't for you then it is not mandatory, your contribution to client service and relationship building through your day to day delivery will be appreciated anyway.
An exciting opportunity with a lot of exposure for an Employment Lawyer who wants to enjoy their work and be part of a growing brand, in a role which can to a degree be crafted around your own circumstances and expectations.
Brooke Thornham Consulting advertisements use PQE levels purely as a guide to the level of experience required for the role and this does not prohibit applications from candidates who are able to demonstrate the necessary skills and experience. We aim to respond to enquiries as soon as possible but if we have not contacted you within 5 days then unfortunately on this occasion your application has not quite met the requirements of our client closely enough.
