Senior Employment Counsel | Leading UK Digital Bank | Confidential Search
A fast-growing, purpose-led digital bank is looking for a Senior Employment Lawyer to join its in-house legal team.
This is a rare opportunity to take a lead employment law role within a well-regarded, FCA-regulated financial services business that has scaled rapidly.
The role:
You'll advise across the full employee lifecycle: from hiring, reward and executive service agreements to grievances, disciplinaries and settlement agreements, while owning employment-related regulatory matters, including the Senior Managers & Certification Regime (SMCR) and the FCA's Code of Conduct. You'll also support international projects linked to the group's technology licensing business, working alongside external counsel across multiple jurisdictions.
