Description

A brilliant Leeds-based firm are looking to bring in an Employment Associate around the 2-6 PQE mark.

You’ll be picking up a high-quality caseload from a Partner so there’s real substance to get your teeth into from day one. The work is mainly respondent-side and contentious, so solid tribunal experience would be a big plus, but you’ll also get involved in advisory matters as part of a well-rounded caseload. Expect to handle everything from unfair dismissal and discrimination claims through to TUPE and whistleblowing cases, all for a strong and established client base.

What really sets this firm apart is the culture. They’ve got a strong reputation for looking after their people, with clear investment in development, genuine progression opportunities, and a focus on wellbeing.

On top of that, the package is competitive and well put together, with a solid benefits offering including generous holiday allowance, pension, life cover and more.

It’s a great opportunity for someone looking to do high-quality work in a supportive and forward-thinking environment while continuing to build their profile in the Leeds market.

Applicants with a claimant background can also be considered.
