My client, a UK Top 50 firm, is seeking to appoint a senior Employment Lawyer at Director or Partner level as part of a strategic expansion of its employment offering in Oxfordshire and the wider region.

The role encompasses a high-quality mix of contentious and non-contentious employment work, including complex tribunal and High Court litigation, discrimination and whistleblowing, executive exits, workplace investigations and more.
