Employment Lawyer | 6+ PQE | Midlands | National Commercial Law Firm
If you are a qualified Employment Lawyer looking for high-quality work, genuine flexibility and the opportunity to advise some of the UK's best-known businesses, this could be an excellent next step.
We're working with a successful national law firm with a strong reputation for advising a diverse client base, from owner-managed businesses to major national and international organisations. The firm combines the quality of work and calibre of clients typically associated with larger city practices with the flexibility to be based from any of its Midlands offices, allowing lawyers to enjoy first-class work without compromising on location or lifestyle.
This is a firm that values substance over status. They're looking for lawyers with energy, initiative and commercial awareness, people who enjoy being close to clients, taking ownership, spotting opportunities and helping to drive the business forward.
Whether your background is at a leading international practice, a respected regional firm or a boutique, what matters most is the impact you've made and the value you'll bring to the team. The firm has an entrepreneurial culture where ability, attitude and ambition are recognised, creating an environment where driven lawyers can thrive.

Joining a highly regarded Employment team, you'll advise on a broad mix of contentious and non-contentious employment matters for an impressive client portfolio that includes well-known household brands and leading national retailers.
Working closely with a highly respected and approachable Partner, you'll benefit from excellent mentoring while enjoying significant client exposure and responsibility from day one.
This is an opportunity to develop your career within a team recognised for delivering pragmatic, commercially focused advice across a wide range of sectors.
