Our sectors include: health; real estate and construction; education; energy and infrastructure; financial services; government; insurance; manufacturing and industrials; and retail, consumer and logistics.

Law needs all voices to reflect the society it serves and we’re working towards social mobility, diversity and inclusion in our firm and our profession. We strive to create meaningful personal and professional development opportunities and offer flexible working in support of a good work-life balance. We’re a Disability Confident Employer and will offer an interview to disabled applicants who best meet the minimum/essential criteria for the role. Tick on the application form if you’d like to apply through the Disability Confident Interview Scheme.

We strive to create meaningful personal and professional development opportunities and offer flexible working in support of a good work-life balance. Providing client focused comprehensive and pragmatic HR advice and support to schools and academies in line with their specific policies, procedures and legal requirements is a core component of our service to clients and a core component of this role. This role also supports the Senior HR Consultants and the Head of HR Services in the development of HR consultancy services to the education sector.

Our team of legal and HR specialists have a wealth of education knowledge and experience and come highly commended; consistently featured in Band One of the Legal 500 and Chambers UK listings. At the core of our approach is our objective to help our education clients do what is fundamentally right for their pupils and their organisation as a whole.

To build excellent relationships with colleagues, relating well to people at all levels within the firm, building team spirit and showing a collegial commitment to ongoing development of the firm’s services to the education sector. Provide a solution focused, pragmatic HR advisory service to clients on the full range of complex employee relations and wider HR issues

Lead on complex casework, and the provision of telephone and email service
Delegate to and supervise HR Advisors as required
Create content for and deliver training to clients
Write blog posts and advisory articles on an ad-hoc basis for both Browne Jacobson materials as well as sector publications and websites
Lead on the client conversation regarding annual renewal of HR services
Manage allocated client matter files, ensuring that fees and time are managed carefully and that support teams are notified of billing requirements. This is a client facing, fee-earning role within a professional services environment, therefore the role holder will need to carry out appropriate recording of all activities, ensuring that time spent on each activity is accurately recorded each day in line with the firm’s time recording policy (a software system is used in support of this)


Up-to-date knowledge and understanding of HR best practice and a thorough understanding of the practical application of employment law
Sound experience of managing and bringing to a successful conclusion complex and contentious HR casework including discipline, grievance, capability, and harassment
As part of the HR Services team, you would be expected to have the following skills and experience:

Evidence of continual professional development as a HR practitioner (ideally from within the education sector but this is not essential)
Ability to work collaboratively to review, develop and implement effective human resources policies and procedures
Effective communication, influencing and persuasion skills together with evidence of success in building and forming working relationships, and working flexibly, across professional and operational boundaries
Ability to produce innovative ideas, approaches, or insights in order to continually develop the HR Services practice, be that through internal system development or through new products and services that add value to our clients
Ability to take on board new projects and instructions with confident self-direction, researching and gathering information in order to support decision making, personal practice and exceptional client service
As a role model, sets appropriate standards of behaviour, upholding Browne Jacobson’s core values and ethics, promoting and defending equal opportunities and embracing diversity and inclusion

If external support is required on a vacancy, a member of the Browne Jacobson recruitment team will release the role to one of our agency partners. We ask that recruitment agencies do not send CVs unless instructed on the role.
