The Opportunity
Flexibility, autonomy and the opportunity to shape how you work.

An established and growing private practice is looking for an experienced Employment Solicitor with 5+ years’ PQE to join its expanding team. With a range of engagement options available, this opportunity offers genuine flexibility to suit your working preferences.

The firm is open to:
  • Full-time or part-time arrangements
  • Traditional employed positions
  • Consultancy agreements
If you’re a commercially minded solicitor who values autonomy, flexibility and strong earning potential, while benefiting from the backing and infrastructure of an established practice, this could be the opportunity for you.

You’ll advise individuals across a broad spectrum of contentious and non-contentious claimant employment law matters, with real scope to shape how you work.

The Role
You’ll manage your own varied claimant employment law caseload, advising individual clients from initial instruction through to resolution.

Your responsibilities will include:
  • Managing your own employment law caseload from instruction through to resolution.
  • Advising on unfair dismissal, discrimination, whistleblowing, redundancy, grievances and settlement agreements.
  • Drafting and reviewing employment contracts, policies and handbooks.
  • Representing clients in Employment Tribunal proceedings where required.
  • Providing strategic, commercially focused advice to clients.
  • Building and maintaining long-term client relationships.
  • Contributing to the ongoing growth and reputation of the firm.
The role offers real autonomy and responsibility from day one, giving you the opportunity to make your mark rather than simply slot into an existing structure.

About You
You’ll be an experienced employment solicitor who is confident managing your own caseload and providing practical, solutions-focused advice to claimant clients.

You’ll have:
  • England and Wales solicitor qualification with 5+ years’ PQE in employment law within private practice.
  • Experience independently managing your own caseload.
  • Confidence advising claimant clients.
  • The ability to work remotely, with strong organisational and self-management skills.
  • A commercial, pragmatic and solutions-focused approach.

What’s on Offer?
  • £70,000–£120,000 base salary.
  • Performance-related bonus structure, with £25,000–£30,000 achievable from Year 2.
  • Fully remote working.
  • Flexible working patterns, with complete autonomy over your hours.
  • Full back-office, compliance and marketing support, allowing you to focus on fee earning.
  • A supportive and entrepreneurial culture.
  • The opportunity to maximise earnings within a flexible model.
  • Full-time or part-time opportunities.
  • An arrangement ideal for those looking to supplement an existing practice or workload.
  • A minimum commitment of just 15 hours per week, with the flexibility to work 25+ hours if preferred.

An Opportunity Designed Around You
Whether you’re seeking a complete career shift towards flexible remote practice or a well-supported way to build on an existing caseload, this role offers the flexibility to work around your life.

If you’re looking for greater autonomy, flexible working arrangements and strong earning potential within an established private practice, we’d love to hear from you.
