Your new company
A well-known national consulting organisation, providing its multi-industry clients with a broad range of legal, tax and audit services. The business operates on a partnership model and regularly features in awards for being a fantastic place to work. It has multiple office locations across the UK. Culturally, the organisation offers hybrid working and a fantastic, fit-for-purpose benefits package.
Your new role
An employment lawyer position reporting to the Head of Employment Law, as part of an immediate team of four. Working three days in the office within a hybrid set up, you will advise a portfolio of clients including global brands, listed companies and international businesses on their employment law matters. These will include but not be limited to general advisory work, tribunal defence, corporate reorganisations, TUPE transfers and employee/director contracts. You will be given significant autonomy to run your own caseload, while also having excellent sound-boarding support from your team. This position can be based out of London or Birmingham.
Reasons to use Rodeo
Start with a chat, not a search bar
Grad scheme, placement, apprenticeship? Not sure what you want yet — that's fine. Your agent talks it through with you and turns "I have no idea" into a shortlist.
It searches the market for you
Every day your agent scans the market matching roles against what actually matters to you, not just keywords on a CV.
Only hits
No noise. No "maybe this fits." Just roles with a clear explanation of why they're right — and where to focus when applying.
What you'll need to succeed
You will need to be a qualified lawyer in England & Wales, either through a training contract, SQE or QLTS and have unrestricted UK working rights. As a guide, you will have 3+ PQE and strong employment law experience, both contentious and non-contentious. You will be an ambitious and capable employment lawyer with exceptional technical ability.
What you'll get in return
The business offers accelerated career growth in comparison to a traditional law firm, and this client-facing role comes with significant autonomy to make it your own. With an attractive basic salary, performance bonus and various benefits available via salary sacrifice, the broader package is excellent.
