The role

Lead Employment Lawyer / Senior Level Appointment

Liverpool | AfterAthena (Napthens Group)


Let's be honest. You didn't become an employment lawyer to spend your days stuck in reactive, last-minute firefighting.

What if you could:

  • Shape strategy, not just fix problems
  • Build something meaningful from the ground up
  • Work with businesses that actually want to do things right

Welcome to AfterAthena.

The Opportunity

Your a standout employment lawyer who wants to take the lead in Liverpool-someone who enjoys autonomy, influence, and the chance to redefine how employment law support is delivered.

This isn't a traditional law firm role.
It's a hybrid of legal expertise, consultancy, and innovation, powered by tech.


Why this is different

At AfterAthena, you'll:

  • Combine legal expertise with cutting-edge AI tools
  • Provide proactive, strategic advice (not just reacting to crises)
  • Help businesses build healthier, stronger workplaces
  • Work alongside HR, H&S and legal specialists in a truly collaborative team

You'll also leverage our app-based platform-giving clients instant access to insights, templates, updates, and you when it matters most.


What you'll be doing

  • Leading employment law support across the Liverpool market
  • Advising on complex ER matters, tribunals, and strategy
  • Helping clients stay compliant (and ahead of the curve)
  • Shaping policies, processes and best practice
  • Playing a key role in growing AfterAthena in the region


What we are looking for

  • Senior employment lawyer (ideally 6+ PQE, but we'll flex for the right person)
  • Someone commercially minded who enjoys client relationships
  • A natural problem-solver who thrives on variety
  • A builder-someone who wants to create, not just maintain


Why Liverpool?

Because it's a city that backs ambition and so do our people already working in Napthens Liverpool.
And this is your chance to lead something exciting within it-with the backing of Napthens LLP behind you.

Final thought

You've already proven you can do the job.
Now's your chance to do it differently-with more autonomy, creativity, and impact.
