About the Job
Employment Solicitor – Up to £57,000 salary
This is a superb opportunity to join an award-winning, modern, dynamic, and supportive law firm offering specialist quality legal advice to commercial clients and private individuals.
The Team has a strong and growing reputation in the Essex market and they work for clients both locally and nationally. The Employment Team is recognised in the Legal 500.
Due to the development and expansion of the firm’s commercial offering, it is now seeking to appoint an experienced Employment Lawyer to work alongside existing partners, driving a resilient and varied legal practice.
The ideal candidate will have wide-ranging experience, including non-contentious respondent matters. However, the workload is as varied as the client base, all interested parties can apply in the strictest of confidence, and all employment law specialisms will be considered.
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.
You will be required to take part in and initiate marketing, networking, and other business development activities in order to maintain and develop work from both existing and potential clients.
The successful candidate will be expected to work with limited supervision but with the benefit of full admin support from Legal Secretaries and Paralegals.

- A Senior Employment Solicitor with between 3-5 years post-qualification experience
- Ability to work to deadlines/targets, to prioritise and manage a varied caseload
- Ability to work well as part of a team and on your own initiative
- Professional and effective communication with individual and business contacts
