Our Team
We are one of the largest and most globally focused practices in the world. Our global L&E team has a truly extensive reach, acting for a range of employers from small start-ups to listed multinationals, across a broad spread of sectors and encompassing a wide spectrum of businesses, from professional services companies to financial institutions.
The team in London presents the opportunity to work with a variety of renowned partners on a broad spread of matters across sectors including Retail, Finance, FMCG, Media and Advertising, Manufacturing, and Engineering.
Our Opportunity
This team has seen sustained revenue growth over past years, with increasing significant and complex mandates combined with strong demand from clients in the UK and elsewhere. The practice also continues to innovate as it extends into the tech space. As a result, we recognise the need to invest in talent and are keen to continue to build and grow our Associate group.
We work on large (often cross-jurisdictional) matters where you will be a valuable part of a global client team with front line client exposure. From day one, you will advise on a wide range of projects, including drafting global policies and procedures, disciplinary and grievance issues, restructures and redundancies, TUPE and changes to terms and conditions. We recognise the fundamental importance of excellent client service as it is what differentiates us from our competition.

You
You'll be a qualified solicitor under the laws of England and Wales (between 4 and 5 years' PQE). You will have a strong track record in employment law and should have excellent academic credentials. Whether you are already in the London market or seeking to make a move to the capital, we would be delighted to hear from you.
Solid matter management is a must, as is ambition, self-motivation and both the desire and the ability to deliver high-quality work and act on your own initiative. You will be adept at handling a broad spectrum of non-contentious employment law issues, including the employment aspects of corporate transactions litigation and multi-country projects, as well as experience in Employment Tribunal litigation. You will thrive in a collaborative team environment, be intellectually curious and enjoy resolving challenging legal issues.
Experienced in delegating to and managing the work of junior associates and trainees, you will also have a keen interest in business development, including cross selling between the different practice areas of the firm. You should expect lots of client contact, and a rewarding and challenging career path - all of which come with a role in this team at Squire Patton Boggs.
