    Job Description

    What you'll do

    We are seeking to recruit a confident and highly motivated employment Solicitor (ideally with around 2 years PQE) to join our award winning and highly regarded Employment team based in Bristol, with opportunities for sensible hybrid working arrangements.

    Having been previously ranked as 'Employment team of the year' and with consistently high rankings in both Legal 500 and Chambers and Partners, you'll be part of a high performing team which provides pragmatic, rigorous and commercial advice in both private businesses in technology & retail, and in public sectors, locally and nationally.

    From the outset you'll be providing expert advice to a range of clients including employers and senior employees/executives in a range of litigious matters. Responsible for dealing with high quality, high value work, we will encourage and enable you to lead your own matters from the outset.

    Reporting to and working closely with the head of the team, you will play an integral part in a wide range of employment work.

    Who you are

    Having worked with a successful employment team at a similar sized city or national law firm, you will have already gained a good level of experience in litigious employment matters.

    As a strong communicator, you will excel at gaining the confidence of the clients you are working with, and handle their matters with empathy and sensitivity. You will need the ability to build strong and lasting relationships with clients, and show a genuine commitment to their care.

    Naturally resilient, you will be able to cope with stressful and demanding situations, and be accustomed to working under pressure to meet challenging deadlines. You will be tenacious and thorough with good commercial judgement, in order to find the best possible outcomes for our clients in often challenging circumstances.

    We will encourage you to take a high degree of responsibility for the cases you're working on, and we'll take every opportunity to support and develop you, providing cross working opportunities to increase experience across the team. This is a great opportunity if you're ambitious and eager to make a reputation for yourself in a highly regarded firm with national quality work.

    Why join Team Ashfords?

    Ask our people, and they will tell you that they genuinely enjoy coming to work and spending time with their colleagues. We're confident that once you discover our open and friendly culture, it won't take long for you to feel the same.

    We have a genuine team approach at Ashfords because we know that when talented people work together, we achieve more for our clients and each other. We also recognise that each of our career journeys is unique. So, we will be ambitious for you and give you the support you need to develop your career, your way.

    Importantly, we will give you the space and flexibility for your life outside work too.

    Our goal? To help you realise your full potential as part of a forward-thinking team and business.

    That's what sets us apart.

    Our offer

    We offer a range of benefits to support you at work and at home.

    This includes a flexible working framework giving you the freedom to mix home and office working, extra annual leave for your birthday and the option to buy more holiday.

    We have a comprehensive package to support physical and mental health including healthcare plans, an Employee Assistance programme and free access for you and up to five friends to the 'Calm' Mindfulness App.

    You'll also have the chance to get involved in our responsible business programme, including fundraising initiatives through the Ashfords Foundation and bringing your energy to our environment or diversity groups.

    What next?

    Interested in this vacancy but not sure you match all the requirements? At Ashfords, we are committed to building a diverse and inclusive workforce. We offer training and development opportunities to all of our people to help everyone reach their full potential. Even if your skills and experience aren't a perfect match, we'd still love to hear from you. If you're not the right candidate for this role, you could be the right candidate for other positions at Ashfords.

    For an informal and confidential discussion about this opportunity, please contact Toby Tompkins, Talent Attraction Specialist, on or via email

    Or apply now, and we will be in touch with you as soon as possible.
