About Employment Law Solutions

We’re Employment Law Solutions. A family run business that, for over 15 years, has helped hundreds of UK business owners with practical, jargon free HR, Employment Law, and Health & Safety support.

Our close knit team of lawyers and H&S consultants value straightforward advice and genuine client relationships. We’re growing fast and looking for people who want to grow with us. If you want to do meaningful, legally sound work without the stuffiness of a traditional firm, you’ll fit right in.

The Role

With 100% growth between 2023 to 2025, Employment Law Solutions is continuing to grow and is looking to appoint an experienced Employment Law Litigator to support our expanding client base.

You’ll take ownership of employment tribunal cases across a diverse portfolio of retained clients, spanning a wide range of sectors and business sizes. Most of your work will involve:

• Preparing cases, submissions, ET3 responses, statements, and witnesses ahead of tribunal hearings
• Appearing at hearings and presenting appeals on behalf of clients
• Liaising with external bodies, opposing representatives, and counsel to achieve cost-effective outcomes
• Working closely with our advisory team to ensure wider issues arising from cases are picked up by the right colleagues

As an Employment Law Advisor, the role offers:

• Real variety – managing tribunal cases across a wide range of sectors (from micro businesses to larger employers with up to 2,000 staff).
• A relationship-led approach – you’ll build genuine rapport with clients, not just process cases at arm’s length
• No billable hours / no sales targets – success is measured by client outcomes and satisfaction.
• A supportive, growth-minded team – training, coaching and development are built into the culture. You don’t need to be the finished article, there is support on hand
• Progression opportunity – the business is growing, with longer-term potential routes to Head of Litigation level and beyond
• Work/life balance – finishing on time, switching off, and no “always on” culture.

What you’ll need

We are looking for an experienced Employment Law Litigator with strong advocacy skills and a proven ability to represent clients confidently in courts and tribunals.

• Extensive knowledge of employment law and tribunal practice, including preparing ET3 forms and managing responses to tight deadlines
• Strong advocacy skills – the ability to persuade, influence and represent effectively in hearings and appeals
• Strong verbal and written communication skills
• Sound judgement in decision-making and problem solving, particularly in risk assessment contexts
• Good organisational skills and a commercial, business-aware mindset

Other Information

• Holidays: 34 Days annual leave (26 + bank holidays)
• Private Medical Insurance from day 1 (includes dental & optical)
• Profit related company bonus

If you have some of the skills mentioned but not all, we’d still encourage you to apply. We’re happy to discuss your suitability for the role.
