As an Employment Associate, you will work alongside senior and junior associates to advise and assist clients in connection with largely contentious work with some non-contentious work also available.

Your responsibilities will include:

  • Preparing for employment tribunal cases, including preparation of Claim/Response, Employment Tribunal Applications, List of Issues, Witness Statements, Skeleton Arguments, and drafting approval applications for settlement of cases.
  • Advocacy in employment tribunals- Case Management Hearings/Preliminary Hearings.
  • Drafting correspondence to the Employment Tribunal, opposing Solicitors, witnesses, ACAS, client advice.

There may also be some scope for Corporate support work – e.g. advice on TUPE in connection with transactions; advising on indemnities and warranties; due diligence reports for clients.

You should have a strong academic background with experience in contentious and non-contentious work. You should also have an enquiring mind, be attentive to detail, and have a willingness to accept new challenges. Commercial awareness is essential, with the ability to assimilate facts quickly and work towards tight timescales, managing your own time effectively. You should also be able to provide and communicate practical, commercial advice, establishing and maintaining good professional relationships with both clients and colleagues.
