Job Details

A fantastic opportunity has arisen for an Employment Solicitor to join a well-established firm in Leeds. Our client is independently rated by The Legal 500 and Chambers Directory as the leading provider of legal services to the health and social care sector and in the field of professional discipline. The Employment department is recognised as one of the UK's leading suppliers of employment law services to NHS bodies and carries out work for around 100 healthcare bodies throughout the UK.

Working for this prestigious firm will give you the chance to work on a range of contentious and non-contentious matters including general employment advisory work, the handling of employment tribunal claims, whistleblowing, high profile cases, advising on reorganisation and redundancy issues and the application of health care legislation to routine employment law scenarios. You will have the opportunity to act for major clients such as forms of NHS provider and commissioner organisations, NHS Employers, the Department of Health, the NHSLA, regulatory bodies, charities, independent healthcare providers, housing associations, medical malpractice insurers and defence organisations.

The Leeds team has grown significantly in the last two years and plans to continue expansion in years to come. They are looking for someone to hit the ground running as well as participate in business development if desired. This is a great opportunity to work for a growing team within a Top 100 law firm that prides itself on being able to offer top quality work, excellent career prospects and a healthy work life balance in a supportive working environment.

Our client is ideally looking for someone who is NQ -5 years PQE, however this level of experience has been given as an approximate guide for applicants and our client is happy to consider the applications of candidates who fall outside of this level but who have the relevant knowledge/experience, together with the enthusiasm for this particular role.

This is a great opportunity to join a market leading firm so if you are ready for a new and exciting challenge, please contact Rachel Birkinshaw (or another member of our private practice department) at Sacco Mann.

Company

Sacco Mann are specialist Legal Recruiters recognised as regional experts with a genuine interest in, as well as knowledge of, their marketplace. We are renowned for giving clear and straightforward career advice and true quality of service.

We have thirteen experienced consultants focussing on legal recruitment, encompassing the Commercial, General Practice, Public Sector and In House positions, both permanent and locum. In addition two consultants specialise within the Patents and Trademarks sector.

We feel that much of our success has been due to the fact that we:

- try to accurately guage and understand what both candidates and clients require and indeed that which they are able to offer and then bring the two together
- have a demonstrable knowledge of the marketplace. Fundamentally what you need is not merely someone who can post your CV to a practice, but someone whose strength of contacts within the firms can add value, ensuring that you are given proper consideration
- discuss each role with you thoroughly and get prior clearance before a CV is submitted. This is an extremely important for protecting confidentiality and avoiding duplication
- brief you fully prior to any interviews, ensuring that you know what the role entails and how the interview will be run. We also give you honest interview feedback - if you don't do very well in an interview you can always learn from the experience
- are accessible and return your calls

Why use Sacco Mann?

Principally because we believe that the points outlined above are fundamental. We enjoy recruitment, and we are good at it, because we genuinely enjoy assisting people make positive career moves. We don't shuffle paper because we know our marketplace and are therefore in a position to give reliable, knowledgeable and practical advice.

The vast majority of our applicants and clients are at pains to thank us for the advice and service that we provide and we believe the high level of referral business is a direct result of the fact that lawyers value our input.
