Employment Partner

About the Company

A national and specialist employment law firm is hiring a Partner or Legal Director for their Employment team, based in the Reading office. There is lots of work already in play in this team, and so for the right person, this is a genuine opportunity to step into a Partner position without the need to take a client following with you.

About the Role

A little about this role:

• You'll sit within a highly reputable Employment team - recognised by the Legal 500 for Employment work
• You'll support both employees and employers at a range of companies - from start-ups to some of the biggest household names
• There is no need for a client following - the team has bags of work in play already, so you can move to a Partner role without the need to bring a following.

This role is perfect for a stifled Legal Director within a large team who is either dealing with institutionalised clients and therefore cannot build their own client book, or who is lacking the investment from their current practice to push on.

About You

You will need to be ideally over 6 years PQE and have strong experience in employment law, advising employers and dealing with contentious matters. In addition, you'll need to be interested in managing and mentoring juniors as well as supporting the wider team. This office is dedicated to creating a strong culture and positive environment to work in, and you'll be expected to be a key player in this.
