• Strategic & Transactional Support Provide employment law support on corporate transactions such as mergers and acquisitions, business transfers, reorganisations, and restructuring exercises.


• Documentation & Advisory Draft, review, and negotiate employment agreements, senior executive contracts, ESOP and incentive documentation, employee handbooks, HR policies, confidentiality and restrictive covenant arrangements, and separation-related documentation.

Ideal Candidate

• Significant hands-on experience in employment and labour law advisory within a law firm environment.
