About the role:
We are looking for a talented solicitor to join our Auckland Employment and Health & Safety team. As the successful candidate, you will work directly with leaders in their field, Marie Wisker and Vonda Engels, in a fast-paced environment and for a range of clients on the full spectrum of employment and health and safety-related issues.
Particular experience in employment law is essential, with health and safety experience being desirable. You'll have a strong academic record and the motivation to succeed in a busy, dynamic and fun team. You'll be part of a friendly and social team who work collaboratively. You will work in an open and supportive environment while being exposed to a wide variety of challenging and quality work, including employment-related disputes and litigation, advisory work and the opportunity to work on some of New Zealand's leading commercial transactions.
