Senior Employment Lawyer

Wellington, Wellington, New Zealand Robert Walters New Zealand Full time

An exciting opportunity has arisen for an ambitious and experienced Senior Employment Lawyer to join Robert Walters New Zealand's highly reputable legal team. As a key member of the team, you will have the chance to work on top-tier assignments for prestigious clients, embodying the ethos of 'big firm work without the big firm bureaucracy'. Our firm is renowned for its supportive environment, demonstrated through initiatives like birthday celebrations, weekly massages, and a netball team, contributing to a close-knit community.

As a Legal Associate Solicitor, you will provide specialised legal advice and manage various aspects of employment law. You will work closely with a supportive team while also being granted autonomy to handle matters independently. Your responsibilities will span across non-contentious areas such as assisting employers and employees with employment law processes and drafting legal documents. However, you will also have the scope to assist senior members on contentious matters, gaining exposure to both the legal and strategic aspects of each stage of contentious matters.

This is a fantastic opportunity to be part of a dynamic team that prioritises exceptional service without bureaucratic hurdles. Despite being a small team, we handle top-tier work for prestigious clients, showcasing our expertise and dedication. We foster a supportive environment, demonstrated through various initiatives that contribute to a close-knit community. We prioritise understanding clients' needs and providing practical solutions, making us a trusted advisor in the legal field.

We are seeking someone who possesses at least 2-3 years of post-admission experience in employment law, with strong interpersonal skills and an approachable, reliable, and responsive nature. Experience in handling both non-contentious and contentious areas of law is essential, as is a willingness to learn and adapt in a supportive yet challenging environment. Excellent verbal and written communication skills are also required.
