About Haringey

Haringey is a fantastic place to live and work – the world in one borough. A place brimming with creativity, personality, radicalism, and community. It is a place where we stand up for each other. A place that is proudly distinctive. We’ll be celebrating all this and more as the “rebel borough” when we are the 2027 London Borough of Culture.

Our history champions change-makers and everyday rebels; revelling in our differences, battling discrimination, championing equality, and doing things our own way. Haringey’s people are a huge asset, with knowledge, expertise, and passion. Our staff members embody our organisational values: Caring, Creative, Courageous, Collaborative and Community-focused. These values keep us looking forward, ambitious for the future, and continuously striving to do our very best for all of our residents.

About the role

This is a great opportunity to work as an employment lawyer in a busy Lexcel accredited in-house legal team conducting a range of challenging and interesting cases. The team undertakes a wide variety of employment litigation and advice work for the local authority and associated bodies including maintained schools and service partnerships. The postholder will carry a varied caseload that covers the full range and balance of contentious and non-contentious employment work common to a busy London Borough. Contentious work will primarily involve the conduct of Employment Tribunal case work spanning all forms of protected acts of discrimination pre post and during employment as well unfair dismissal and breach of contract. Non-contentious work will primarily involve advising on and drafting internal personnel processes affecting staff discipline, grievances, sickness absence and TUPE in remit of the Local Authority, its maintained schools and service provision partners.

Working for Haringey

At Haringey Council we are committed to creating a workplace culture where all our people feel valued, included, and able to be their best at work, and we recognise the benefits of a diverse workforce so welcome applications from all ethnicities and communities so that we continue to make a difference to our residents and community.  Our benefits package includes a leave entitlement of 31 days + bank holidays, potential hybrid working opportunities, health and wellbeing support, a generous local government pension scheme and a range of discount schemes across leisure and culture that provide both financial and money-saving discounts.

About you

We are looking for experienced and committed candidate who can conduct a varied and interesting range of employment litigation matters and provide clear, concise advice in this area to a variety of clients including schools.  You will enjoy working in a fast paced and diverse environment and be able to work under your own initiative and under pressure in an objective, calm and efficient manner. You must also be able to develop and maintain good relationships with clients and key stakeholders who you engage with.

About the team

This is an exciting time to join a Lexcel accredited in-house legal team, which is delivering an efficient and high-quality legal service to enable the council to deliver its corporate priorities.  We are looking for confident, motivated, resilient people with strong communication and influencing skills to be part of our excellent and friendly legal team
