Exciting new roles in online intelligence service

Are you an outstanding employer lawyer looking for a change of direction? Wanting a better work life balance and yet remain at the cutting edge of legal developments?

FromCounsel, a leading online legal intelligence service for law firms and in-house lawyers, is looking for a top quality Employment lawyer to join its Knowledge Team.

Since its launch in 2017, FromCounsel has developed a reputation for offering an unmatched knowledge service to corporate lawyers. Our aim is to make our legal content more comprehensive, more insightful and more accessible than anyone else in the market. With over 90% of the leading 100 corporate law firms as just some of our clients in corporate law, FromCounsel is now expanding into other areas, including employment, and has recently launched its new Employment service, bringing FC’s unique approach to the employment law market.

FC Employment Knowledge

Our new best-in-class employment law resource provides Q&A-structured legal knowledge written by barristers from Cloisters Chambers, the leading employment law chambers, and FC's expert knowledge lawyers. The service addresses the questions and issues faced by employment practitioners and provides clear answers, even on the most difficult or grey areas. The resource is designed for practitioners in private practice, in-house legal and HR teams and caters for all levels, from trainees through to partners and professional support lawyers. For more information see our brochure.

The opportunity

This is an unrivalled opportunity to join a dynamic and rapidly expanding digital business. We are in an exciting phase of our ongoing development and you will play an integral part in the growth and development of FC Employment, with support from expert barristers from leading chambers, our talented team of experienced in-house knowledge lawyers and our excellent legal editorial team.

Job description

Reporting to the Head of Content/Head of Employment, you will be responsible for writing, reviewing and editing first class informative content for FromCounsel’s new Employment Law service and for the day-to-day running of the service. This is a varied and interesting role with significant scope to input into the development of the service from its inception and its interaction with other content streams.

Key responsibilities

· Developing the service, over time, with new topics, precedents, legislation, practical resources and news commentary/analysis

· Scoping, writing, reviewing and editing top quality content for the Employment Law service, consistently applying FromCounsel’s unique approach and style

· Developing the service, over time, with new topics, precedents, legislation, practical resources and news commentary/analysis

· Co-ordinating and working in close collaboration with barristers, colleagues, editors and external experts and specialists

· Working with the Head of Content on project plans and schedules and reporting monthly on progress

· Supporting customer engagement, including by responding to subscribers’ queries and assessing customer needs

· Maintaining and developing own expertise, keeping up to date with legal and market developments and researching sources to identify matters relevant to subscribers

 

Key requirements

This role is open to both existing PSLs and fee-earners looking to move to their first PSL role. Together with strong technical employment law knowledge, the ideal candidates will have  at least 3 years PQE and broad experience  within the employment team of a UK law firm.

A demonstrable aptitude for writing high quality legal copy in an engaging and accessible way, and a genuine interest in communicating legal developments to other lawyers, is essential. Candidates should be focused, efficient and confident in working on their own initiative to deadlines. At the same time, they should enjoy working as part of a team, collaborating with other PSLs and barristers to ensure content meets FromCounsel’s premium standards.

We are looking for:

· Exceptional writing skills and attention to detail

· A keen interest in contributing to an innovative product and delivering an exceptional, market-leading service

· Excellent organisational skills and inter-personal skills

· Flexibility to work in a dynamic and fast-moving environment and to react quickly to developments

· A desire to learn new aspects of wider subject matter relevant to the FromCounsel product and an ability to pick up new concepts quickly
