We are recruiting for a Senior or Managing Associate to join our Employment team in Bristol or Manchester. This is an excellent opportunity to join a Chambers UK and Legal 500 ranked team at a senior level, and work with “Leading Individuals”, as named in the Legal 500. Depending on your experience, opportunities for Partnership will be discussed from an early stage in your career at TLT.

Our Employment team enjoys an excellent reputation in the market and is ranked as a National Leader. We are growing quickly and offer resident employment expertise in England, Scotland, and Northern Ireland. Many of our clients are well known names in the retail, public, and financial services sectors and we provide a full range of employment support, including in defending Employment Tribunal claims.

**Your Role**:
This is an outstanding opportunity for an ambitious Employment Lawyer to take on a senior role in a top tier team, to support the growth of our Employment offering.

As a key addition to the team, day to day you can expect to be involved with high quality, varied work including:

- Helping employers manage issues in the workplace such as disciplinaries, grievances, restructuring and redundancies

- Providing employment law support in TUPE matters, corporate deals and outsourcing contracts, contract drafting and client training
- Enforcement of post termination restrictive covenants
- Drafting of contracts of employment, consultancy agreements, staff handbooks, settlement agreements and other employment related documentation
- Utilising your already experience of advising large corporates (including liaison with board level HR, general counsel and in-house employment counsel), to develop your career further in a senior role
- Collaborating with Partners and other senior team members on business development strategies
- Supporting and working with the wider national Employment team, including supervising Associates, Trainees and Paralegals where required

**Your Skills & Experience**:
To be considered for this role, you will be operating at a senior level in a leading Employment team. You will have substantial experience in both contentious and non-contentious matters, predominately acting for the respondent. You will also have experience advising large corporates and large private sector employers.

Alongside your outstanding technical skills, you will have experience in business development and enjoy building strong client relationships. You will also ideally have experience in several of our target sectors (clean energy, digital, financial services, leisure food and drink, public sector, real estate and retail and consumer goods).

You will have/be:

- A Qualified Solicitor (SRA or Law Society Registered) with at least 8 years PQE
- A proven track record in business development and maintaining strong client relationships
- Experience of supervising and/or managing a small team
- Able to demonstrate first class communication skills with the ability and confidence to engage with clients and colleagues at all levels
- Able to confidently provide strategic advice to a variety of TLT clients
- An active, senior member of the team at TLT, with the commitment to developing the firm’s offering locally and nationally

**Your Team**:
TLT’s Employment team is recognised as a ‘National Leader’ (Band 1) by the leading directory of law firms, Chambers and Partners 2022

Our team of more than 30 specialists advises clients across the three UK legal jurisdictions of England & Wales, Scotland and Northern Ireland on all aspects of employment law. Our services include business reorganisations and redundancies, tactical advice on sensitive/ reputational issues, practical support on business as usual issues such as grievance, boardroom support on reputational or corporate governance issues, employment tribunal representation, internal investigations, advice on employee consultation and engagement, business immigration, employment law training and specialist expertise on TUPE and outsourcing.
