Job Details
We are working with a leading London law firm that is building an exciting new chapter: the establishment of its Employment Law practice. The firm has recently welcomed a dynamic new Head of Employment Law with a strong reputation in the field-so strong, in fact, that their personal workload is already exceeding capacity.
Our client is looking for an ambitious and experienced Junior Partner or Legal Director (including Senior Associate / Of Counsel) who is ready for partnership. Ideally, you'll bring expertise in both contentious and non-contentious employment law, but our Firm is open to those who focus more on one than the other.
What is different about this opportunity?
Less need for a large following - the firm has significant untapped work ready to be serviced.
Strong internal referrals - thanks to a top-tier corporate and commercial client base already in place.
A genuinely collegiate culture - regular social events, cross-team collaboration, and a progressive leadership ethos.
Competitive Pay but with a healthy work life balance
The ideal candidate:
Comes from a respected law firm with solid technical knowledge
Ideally has one or two relationships to bring across, the more they have, the better the entry-level earnings
Is looking for a clear, supported route to equity
Wants to play a pivotal role in shaping a growing team
Enjoys rolling up their sleeves to develop business as well as service it
If you are an ambitious Employment Lawyer who is ready to play a pivotal role in shaping a new team, call us in confidence on 0203 930 1003 or email julian@segalplacements.com transforms your career trajectory.
