    Description

    The Employment team at Mishcon de Reya works across complex, high profile and high stake situations, acting at the highest level for both employers and senior executives.

    Acting at the forefront of employment law, we are regularly instructed on cases that raise the most important legal questions of the day, from diversity and gender pay, to employment status and the implications of the "gig" economy, to the interplay between data, transparency and privacy. The team is renowned for its strategic approach and litigation expertise, regularly appearing in the Employment Appeal Tribunal, Court of Appeal and the Supreme Court.

    Our work covers the full spectrum of contentious and non-contentious employment law and we work seamlessly with our dedicated incentives and business immigration teams.

Alongside day-to-day advisory work, there will be the opportunity to advise on litigious matters in the Employment Tribunal, High Court and appellate courts.

    Clients include employers and employees from a range of sectors including: financial services, fashion, luxury goods, retail, recruitment, media, sport and life sciences.

    We encourage business development. The ideal candidate will need to possess an enthusiasm to develop their own experience and knowledge and in time; practice and profile, by undertaking business development activities, on behalf of the team, both internally and externally

    The successful candidate can expect to work across the full spectrum of contentious and non-contentious employment law and as such, will have exposure to working with most, if not all, Partners and Associates within the team. The successful candidate will also maintain high levels of client contact and should possess strong experience in client contact with both individuals and businesses.

    We're looking for candidates between 3-7 PQE who are really looking to carve out a fantastic and varied career for themselves as part of our supportive and forward thinking team.

    We recognise the importance of agile working. If there is a working pattern or arrangement that you would like us to consider, please let us know. We are able to be very flexible.
