Employment Solicitor

We are currently working with a leading international law firm seeking to appoint a Senior Employment Solicitor to join its growing Dublin team.

This is a standout opportunity for an experienced employment lawyer who wants exposure to complex, strategic and business-critical employment matters within a highly respected international platform.

The Team

The Employment practice is led by a Partner with significant international experience advising domestic and multinational organisations on complex workforce and strategic employment issues.

The team has a strong reputation in:

• Workforce restructurings and collective redundancies

• TUPE transfers, particularly in the context of M&A

• Executive exits and senior-level negotiations

• Sensitive internal investigations

• Employment litigation including unfair dismissal, discrimination and whistleblowing

• Immigration & mobility matters

• Employment-related pensions advisory

The approach is pragmatic, commercially driven and aligned to broader business strategy. Clients include multinational corporates, scaling businesses and leadership teams navigating high-pressure and transformational change.

The Role

This is a senior position within the team, offering significant responsibility and client exposure.

You will:

• Advise on complex advisory and contentious employment matters

• Lead elements of large-scale restructuring projects

• Support corporate transactions from an employment perspective

• Work directly with senior HR teams, executives and boards

• Manage disputes before the WRC and Labour Court

• Play a key role in mentoring more junior team members

This role offers real autonomy, high-quality work and clear progression prospects.

The Person

You will:

• Be a qualified Solicitor with 4+ years’ PQE in employment law

• Have strong experience across both advisory and contentious matters

• Demonstrate commercial awareness and strategic thinking

• Be confident advising senior stakeholders

• Have strong drafting, negotiation and organisational skills

International or transactional exposure would be advantageous but not essential.

Why This Opportunity?

• High-calibre, complex employment work

• Strategic client advisory exposure

• International platform with cross-border collaboration

• Clear career progression

• Supportive, ambitious and collaborative team culture
