đź“Ť Bramhall, Stockport (Office-Based)
💰 £75,000 – £85,000 DOE
đź•’ Full-Time or Part-Time Considered
We are working with a highly respected specialist employment law practice seeking to appoint an experienced Senior Employment Law Solicitor (Senior Associate level) to join their growing team in Bramhall.
This is a standout opportunity for an accomplished employment lawyer looking to step into a more senior, autonomous role within a well-established and highly regarded niche practice. The firm is known for its technical excellence, strong client relationships, and supportive, close-knit culture.
This position would suit an experienced solicitor ready to take ownership of a complex caseload, contribute to the growth of the practice, and play a key role in shaping the team’s continued success.
Why This Role Stands Out
- Senior-level position with genuine autonomy and responsibility
- Pure employment law focus within a specialist, high-quality practice
- Opportunity to handle complex and high-value matters
- Direct client access with trusted advisory responsibility
- Supportive leadership team with strong reputation in the market
- Opportunity to influence the growth and direction of the department
- Flexible working options considered (full or part-time)
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.

Key Responsibilities

- Handling Employment Tribunal litigation, including multi-day hearings where required
- Acting as a senior point of contact for key clients and retaining relationships
- Supporting and mentoring junior team members where appropriate
- Contributing to business development and supporting firm growth
- Handling and converting new client enquiries with confidence
- Ensuring full compliance with SRA and regulatory standards
About You
- Qualified Solicitor in England & Wales
- Strong employment law background with 6+ years PQE (or equivalent senior experience)
- Proven ability to manage complex matters independently
- Confident handling tribunal litigation and client-facing advisory work
- Strong commercial awareness with a proactive, solutions-led approach
