Employment Solicitor

Are you an experienced Employment Solicitor looking for the opportunity to build and lead your own department within a supportive, forward-thinking firm?

A well-established and growing Yorkshire-based law firm is undertaking a strategic recruitment drive. Although the firm does not currently provide Employment Law services, it is keen to expand into this area, either through an ambitious solicitor with a clear vision or an established team seeking a new base.

This is a rare opportunity to create and lead an Employment Law department within a respected multi-office firm. You will benefit from the firm’s strong infrastructure, an excellent reputation across other practice areas including Family, Private Client and Property, and a leadership team that welcomes innovation and growth. Full operational and administrative support will be provided, allowing you to focus on fee-earning and business development. This role would suit someone with the drive and ambition to shape and grow a new service line.

Requirements include:

• A qualified Solicitor with strong experience in Employment Law, ideally with a proven track record of business development and managing caseloads independently

• Individuals or small teams seeking a platform to grow and succeed

• A genuine interest in playing a key role in the firm’s expansion into new practice areas

Why join?

• A progressive and collaborative firm with a strong people-first culture

• Flexible working arrangements, including part-time and hybrid options

• Full autonomy to shape and develop the department, supported by an engaged leadership team

• Clear long-term progression, with partnership potential
