  • 2+ years PQE with a strong grounding in both contentious and non-contentious employment law

  • A commercially astute, solution-oriented mindset

  • Excellent communication skills and the ability to build trusted client relationships

  • A collaborative team player who thrives in a values-driven environment

  • Ambition to develop professionally and contribute to the continued growth of the practice

  • Work with an exceptional, supportive team of lawyers across the North of England

  • Be part of a progressive, B Corp-certified firm that genuinely lives its values

  • Enjoy flexible working and a culture that respects work-life balance

  • Have a clear voice in shaping the way they work and deliver client service

  • Competitive salary and benefits package
