Employment Legal Director

Birmingham
Senior / Principal Associate - Employment | Manchester | £80k-£90k + Bonus/Benefits


A leading national firm with a strong reputation across multiple sectors, offering high-quality work, a well-defined progression structure and a genuinely collaborative culture. The platform is well-established but still growing in Manchester, giving you the chance to step into a visible role rather than getting lost in a large team.


Competitive salary with a strong and reliable bonus, generous pension contribution, private medical, life assurance and income protection. 25-30 days holiday with buy/sell options, enhanced maternity, paternity and shared parental leave, plus hybrid and flexible working as standard.


There's a clear commitment to development through structured progression frameworks, leadership programmes, mentoring and secondment opportunities. The firm is consistently recognised in Legal 500 and Chambers, alongside wider industry awards for workplace culture, innovation and client service.


You'll lead on complex employment matters across a high-quality client base, including strategic advisory work, corporate support and disputes. There's real scope to build relationships, take ownership of work and play a key role in the continued growth of the Manchester team. You'll also support and develop junior lawyers, contributing to the wider strength of the practice.


Who suits this? Someone operating at Senior Associate or Principal Associate level who wants top-tier work, better visibility and a clear route towards Legal Director or Partner without unnecessary politics.


If it's worth a conversation, happy to talk it through.
