Full job description

Join a collaborative, high-performing legal team where your expertise, judgement and leadership will directly shape exceptional outcomes for clients, without the pressures of business development or billing targets.

Why join WorkNest?

WorkNest, part of Axiom GRC’s wider Governance, Risk and Compliance (GRC) division, is a fast-growing, multidisciplinary professional services group. We bring together expertise across Employment Law, HR, Health & Safety, Cybersecurity, ISO and Compliance, combining pragmatic advice with advanced technology to support organisations both in the UK and internationally.

This role offers a compelling alternative to traditional private practice:

No business development responsibilities
No billing or fee targets
A fixed-fee client model, providing a stable and engaged client base

This enables you to focus on delivering high-quality legal advice, building trusted client relationships, and contributing strategically to client outcomes, rather than revenue generation.

Our continued growth, supported by acquisitions including Bulletproof, Pentest People, IMSM and Wirehouse, positions us strongly for the future as we scale towards £250m in revenue.

What we offer

Salary up to £59,000 per annum (depending on experience)
Comprehensive benefits package
Genuine opportunity to influence and contribute to a growing business
Structured development and progression opportunities
The opportunity to mentor and develop trainees through the WorkNest Academy
A supportive, collaborative and inclusive culture
Remote/hybrid working options

The role

As a Senior Employment Lawyer / Advisor, you will play a key role in supporting a portfolio of WorkNest’s larger and more complex clients, ensuring they are equipped to meet both their commercial objectives and legal obligations.

Operating within our fixed-fee model, you will be able to focus on delivering pragmatic, commercially focused advice without the constraints of time recording or billing pressures.

Your responsibilities will include:

Providing high-quality, legally sound employment law advice to a portfolio of clients
Acting as a trusted advisor, supporting clients to make informed commercial decisions
Building and maintaining strong, long-term client relationships
Advising on settlement discussions, early conciliation and complex employee relations matters
Supporting on litigation and more complex advisory work where required
Delivering client training and contributing to internal knowledge sharing
Mentoring and supporting trainees and junior advisors within your team

About you

You will be a qualified legal professional (Solicitor or Chartered Legal Executive) with typically 3–4+ years’ PQE in employment law, gained within private practice or an advisory environment.

You will demonstrate:

Strong technical knowledge of employment law and employee relations
The ability to deliver clear, pragmatic and commercially focused advice
Experience managing client relationships and acting as a trusted advisor
Confidence in handling more complex and sensitive matters
A collaborative approach, with an interest in mentoring and developing others
An appreciation for working within a fixed-fee, client-focused environment, where success is measured by quality of advice and client outcomes rather than billable hours

Experience working with education sector clients or mid-market organisations would be advantageous, though not essential.

If you are looking to step into a senior role where you can focus on delivering excellent legal advice, develop others, and build meaningful client relationships, without the pressures of traditional private practice, we would welcome your application.

We are committed to delivering on our four core values that we believe all our colleagues should align with: Integrity, Excellence, Teamwork and Inclusion.

So what’s next?

If you think this role is a good fit for you, please use the ‘apply now’ button to begin your application. You’ll be asked to submit a CV and covering letter outlining how you fulfil the person specification for this post.

WorkNest is committed to creating a culture of Inclusion and ensuring that everyone – job applicants, clients, colleagues, and anyone else we deal with – is treated fairly and with respect. We continuously review our policies and processes to support our aim to create a diverse team, however, please speak to our Talent Team if there are any adjustments, we need to make in order to ensure, a genuine equality of opportunity.

Closing date: 14th May 2026. Please note: Applications will be reviewed on an ongoing basis. We may look to close the advert early, so please don't delay in submitting an application.
