About the Role

Manage a varied employment law caseload advising both employers and employees within a supportive and growing team.

What’s on Offer?

  • Hybrid working, depending on business needs
  • 25 days’ annual leave plus Bank Holidays
  • Your birthday off
  • Bonus scheme
  • Competitive salary and benefits package
  • Supportive and friendly team culture
  • Exposure to both contentious and non-contentious employment matters
  • Work alongside experienced litigators
  • Opportunity to develop your profile through networking and business development
  • Continued career and technical development

Our client is looking for an Employment Solicitor with around 3–5 years’ PQE to join its team in Seaford.

Reporting to the Head of Department, you’ll have plenty of autonomy to manage your own caseload while still benefiting from the knowledge and support of experienced colleagues.

Your work will include:

  • Advising employers and employees on employment law matters
  • Managing contentious and non-contentious cases
  • Handling Employment Tribunal claims from inception to conclusion
  • Acting on both claimant and respondent matters
  • Providing practical, commercially focused advice
  • Supporting the firm’s HR consultancy team and its external clients
  • Networking and contributing to business development

You’ll need solid employment law experience, strong drafting and technical skills and the confidence to manage matters independently. Excellent client care and a practical, commercial approach to problem-solving are equally important.

This is a strong opportunity for an Employment Solicitor in Seaford or East Sussex looking for quality work, flexibility and a collaborative environment in which to continue developing.

Apply now for a confidential discussion.

If you don’t meet every requirement, we recruit for a variety of Employment Law and Litigation roles across the local area and would still be happy to hear from you.
