Employment Solicitor – Leicester

An exciting opportunity has arisen for an ambitious Employment Solicitor with ideally 3-5 years PQE to join a highly regarded and progressive Employment Team based in Leicester

The team is recognised within the Legal 500 and is known for delivering high-quality Employment Law advice and representation. This is an excellent opportunity for an Employment Lawyer seeking high-quality work, structured career development and a supportive yet ambitious environment.

About the Role:

This Employment Solicitor position offers exposure to a broad mix of claimant and respondent work acting on behalf of employees and regional and national businesses.

You will manage a varied caseload including:

  • Unfair dismissal claims
  • Discrimination and harassment cases
  • Whistleblowing matters
  • Redundancy and restructuring advice
  • Settlement agreements and negotiations
  • Mediation and alternative dispute resolution
  • Employment Tribunal litigation
  • Employment Appeal Tribunal matters

From early-stage negotiations through to complex Employment Tribunal and Employment Appeal Tribunal proceedings, this role offers genuine breadth and depth of experience.

The Team & Culture:

The Employment Team is collaborative and supportive, with experienced colleagues providing supervision, mentoring and guidance. Training, professional development and knowledge-sharing are key priorities.

This role offers:

  • Exposure to complex and high-value Employment disputes
  • Structured mentoring and supervision
  • Opportunities to develop advocacy and litigation strategy skills
  • A varied and high-quality client base
  • Clear progression pathways

About You:

You will be an Employment Solicitor with:

  • Around 3-5 years' PQE in Employment Law
  • Have experience managing your own Employment Tribunal caseload
  • Confident advising both employees and employers
  • Can demonstrate strong drafting, negotiation and advocacy skills
  • Commercially aware and client-focused
  • Thrive in a collaborative team environment

Experience in complex discrimination claims or appellate work would be advantageous but is not essential.

  • Regional and national businesses
  • Senior executives and professionals
  • Long-standing repeat clients
  • Referrals through established professional networks
  • Clients arising from prominent Employment Law campaigns
