Beacon Hill Legal is partnering with a top-ranked Chicago firm on their search for an Employment Associate to join their collaborative Employment and Executive Compensation Group.

The ideal candidate will have 3-5+ years of experience counseling employers on a wide range of employment issues, including compliance with federal, state, and local laws, drafting employment agreements and handbooks, and handling claims involving discrimination, wage and hour, and restrictive covenants.
