Cardiff
  • The firmLewis Silkin works with leading businesses to protect and enhance their most important assets
  • their ideas, their people, their brand and their future

We call it:
Ideas. People. Possibilities.


With offices in London, Oxford, Manchester, Cardiff, Belfast, Dublin and Hong Kong, we are recognised by clients and industry alike as being distinct for our unique culture, market-leading practice areas, sector focused approach and for providing solutions to complex, multijurisdictional business challenges, with a pragmatic and human touch.


We have two things at our core:
people — both ours and our clients'— and a focus on creative, tech and innovative businesses.


Our culture is encapsulated by an ethos of bravery and kindness, guided by our values of Integrity, Clarity, Unity and Excellence (our 'I-CUE').

We aim to provide a supportive environment for our people, clients and wider community and embrace diversity & inclusion, ensuring people are able to bring their full selves to work.


  • The departmentThe work of the team as a whole is a mix of contentious and noncontentious matters, for a wide range of clients. The lawyers also undertake a significant amount of business development including giving seminars and producing Lewis Silkin branded publications. There is a significant international element to the team's work as we support a wide range of global and multinational clients. We work closely with our colleagues in the Ius Laboris international alliance of employment lawyers (of which we are the UK member) to advise those clients seamlessly in all the jurisdictions in which they operate.


Incentives and immigration work is handled by specialists within the Division and this will therefore not form part of the role.


Reporting Structure


The Associate will be based in our Cardiff Office (although travel to London and Oxford will be expected from time to time) and will be reporting to the Head of the Cardiff Office.

The Cardiff Employment team consists of two Partners, one PDL, two Managing Associates, one Senior Associate, nine Associates, one Paralegal and a support team.


  • ResponsibilitiesThe Newly Qualified Associate's workload will be exclusively employment work. The NQ Associate will mainly be assisting more senior associates and partners with their matters, as well as running their own matters under supervision. The caseload will consist of a mix of contentious and noncontentious employment work and the NQ Associate will have direct contact with a variety of clients.


The role will develop in accordance with the NQ Associate's own skills, aptitude and preferences and according to the needs of clients and the EIR Division.


Training
The EIR Division's training programme includes seminars and workshops given by external speakers and by our own internal experts.

  • Additional informationAt Lewis Silkin our ethos is simple. We strive to do the best for our clients, our people and the communities in which we operate. We recognise that an inclusive workplace allows for all kinds of ideas and thoughts, a variety of points of view that can trigger discussions or deliver innovative results, and a wide range of versatile skills and expertise. We are proud of the diversity within Lewis Silkin and of our culture that allows people to be themselves at work, ensuring we provide the best possible service to our clients. We are committed to finding the right person for this role and are open to discussing flexible working patterns and office location.
