Interim Employment Lawyer
Leading International Law Firm. 7 PQE.
We have been instructed by a leading international law firm that is looking to engage an experienced Employment Lawyer on an interim basis to provide additional support to its established Employment team.
The assignment is to start ASAP and run until November 2026. The successful lawyer will join a team of around five lawyers, including two Partners, and will work closely with an Employment Partner.
The workload will be predominantly non-contentious employment and corporate support, so the firm is particularly interested in lawyers with strong experience advising on the employment aspects of corporate transactions. This could include employment support on M&A and other transactional matters, alongside broader day-to-day advisory employment work.
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.
Successful individuals are likely to have upwards of 7 years’ PQE, and be capable of quickly integrating into the team and provide high-quality support with limited supervision. Previous experience gained within a leading City, international or similarly well-regarded law firm would be particularly attractive.
Candidates should ideally be able to demonstrate:
- Qualification as a Solicitor in England & Wales, although suitably experienced lawyers qualified in other commonwealth jurisdictions (such as Australia and/or New Zealand) will also be considered
- Upwards of 7 years’ PQE in employment law
- Strong non-contentious employment law experience
- Notable experience providing employment law support on corporate transactions
- Experience gained within a leading law firm environment
- The ability to operate confidently and autonomously
- The capacity to start a new assignment immediately or at short notice

The firm operates a hybrid working model and would ideally like the successful lawyer to spend 2-3 days per week in its London office, although there is some flexibility on this.
This is an excellent opportunity for an experienced Employment Lawyer to join a highly regarded international practice, working on quality non-contentious and transactional employment matters during a busy period for the team.
The role will pay a competitive daily rate, inside IR35.
