Employment Counsel

Step into a high-impact Employment Counsel role (8-month FTC), shaping how our UK and Guernsey teams navigate employment law.

As an Employment Counsel, you'll join a small, collaborative team providing hands-on legal support across our UK and Guernsey operations. It's a varied and high-visibility role, working across UK operations, Joint Venture businesses, and support offices, giving you real breadth and exposure.

You'll play a key role in guiding the business through a wide range of employment law matters—both contentious and non-contentious. Acting as a trusted advisor, you'll support colleagues with everything from HR investigations and tribunal claims to complex disputes, helping the business navigate challenges with clarity and confidence.

Alongside this, you'll draft and negotiate settlement agreements, review contracts and policies, and support key documentation such as shareholder resolutions and company paperwork. You'll also partner with our Professional Services team on regulatory matters, including those involving the GOC and HCPC. From legal research to working with external counsel and contributing to wider projects, no two days will look the same.

We're looking for a qualified solicitor with solid employment law experience, gained either in private practice or in-house. You'll bring a strong understanding of UK employment law, coupled with a pragmatic, commercial approach. This role sits at the heart of the business, so you'll be confident engaging with stakeholders at all levels, including senior leadership and the Board. You'll have the ability to translate complex legal issues into clear, practical advice that supports decision-making and drive the right outcomes.

This role closes on 4th June 2026: however, we may close the advert sooner if we get inundated with high-quality applications. Apply now - you'll be glad you did.
