Senior Associate - Employment (7+ PQE)

London

If you''re a Senior Associate in Employment law and starting to think about what the next step really looks like, this could be worth exploring.

I''m working with a highly regarded international law firm looking to appoint a Senior Associate (7+ PQE) into their London Employment team as part of continued growth.

You''ll be joining a well-established team advising on a broad mix of contentious and non-contentious Employment matters, including:

• High-value employment tribunal and High Court litigation
• Strategic advisory work for corporate clients
• TUPE, restructures, and large-scale redundancy projects
• Supporting corporate transactions on employment aspects
• Complex, multi-jurisdictional matters

You''ll be expected to take a lead role on matters, with direct client contact and increasing involvement in business development.

• Strong international platform with high-quality client base
• Exposure to complex, cross-border work
• Genuine opportunity to step into a senior, visible position
• Clear pathway towards Legal Director / Partner level
• Collaborative team with strong Partner access

• Qualified Employment Lawyer (England & Wales), ideally 7+ PQE
• Strong experience across both contentious and advisory work
• Experience supporting corporate transactions
• Confident managing clients and leading on matters
• Interest in contributing to team growth and BD activity

This will suit someone who is already operating at Senior Associate level and wants a role where they can step up in terms of visibility, responsibility, and long-term progression.

If you''re open to a confidential conversation, I''m happy to talk through the team, the work, and how this compares to your current position.
