Why join us

Wirehouse, part of the WorkNest group, sits within the wider Governance, Risk and Compliance (GRC) division owned by Axiom GRC, which is expanding fast. Our group includes experts in Employment Law, HR, Health & Safety, Cybersecurity, ISO and Compliance. We are powered by pragmatic advice and cutting-edge technology.

Our growth across the UK and international markets has been strengthened by acquisitions including Bulletproof, Pentest People and IMSM. Building on this strong foundation, we are now focused on reaching £250 million in revenue, delivering more than 25% CAGR through a combination of organic growth and future strategic acquisitions.

What We Offer

• Salary: £48,000 to £52,000 per annum, depending on experience

• Great Benefits

• Opportunities for professional growth and development

• Opportunity to grow your team

• A supportive and inclusive work culture

• Remote or hybrid working available

What we’re looking for

You will provide high-quality employment tribunal advocacy and litigation support, managing an existing caseload of tribunal claims and representing respondents at both preliminary and full merits hearings, remotely and in person.

Working closely with our Employment Law advice teams and wider WorkNest colleagues, you will play a key role in delivering a consistent and high-quality service to clients. You will take a pragmatic and commercial approach to case management, ensuring clients feel supported, informed, and confident throughout the tribunal process, while maintaining the highest professional standards.

This role will require occasional travel across the UK to attend employment tribunal hearings in person, as required.

About you

You will have significant recent experience providing employment tribunal advocacy (ideally with at least five years’ experience), and be confident representing respondents at both preliminary and full merits hearings. You will bring a strong working knowledge of UK Employment Law and HR, alongside excellent drafting, analytical, and negotiation skills.

You will be comfortable managing complex caseloads independently and proactively, with the ability to prioritise work effectively and meet strict tribunal deadlines and procedural requirements. You will be confident working both autonomously and as part of a wider team, maintaining a professional and pragmatic approach at all times.

Experience working within an Employment Law or HR consultancy environment is desirable, as is holding a law degree, CIPD qualification, or equivalent professional experience. Experience delivering training or webinars would also be an advantage, but is not essential.
