Labor & Employment Associate Attorney

Aligned Talent Acquisition

Job Description

Job Description

Labor & Employment Associate Attorney

Current & Future Opportunities | Confidential Career Conversations

Are you getting the experience, responsibility, and support you need to grow?

Labor and employment is a demanding practice, and the right environment can make all the difference in your professional development and long-term satisfaction.

Aligned Talent Acquisition is interested in connecting with Labor & Employment Associate Attorneys who may be open to exploring a new firm environment.

I work primarily with Am Law 50, 100, and 200 firms , but I also frequently partner with small and midsize firms, respected regional firms, and sophisticated boutiques across multiple markets.

Not currently practicing at an Am Law firm? I'd still love to hear from you! I welcome associates from firms of all sizes and value relevant experience, skills, and career goals.

Areas of Experience
  • Management-side employment litigation

  • Employment counseling and compliance

  • Discrimination, retaliation, and wage-and-hour matters

  • Restrictive covenants and workplace investigations

  • Traditional labor relations

What Could Your Next Move Offer?

More meaningful litigation and counseling responsibility

Greater client exposure and independence

Competitive compensation and bonus opportunities

Stronger mentorship and clearer advancement paths

A better balance between billables and personal life

Being open to a conversation doesn't mean you're committed to leaving your current firm.

This is an opportunistic search, not an advertisement for one specific opening. However, I work with numerous law firms across multiple markets and may already have active opportunities that align with your experience and career goals.

Whether there's an immediate fit or we stay connected for the right opportunity down the road, I'd welcome the chance to learn more about your background, compensation expectations, and what matters most to you in your next move.

All conversations are confidential. Your resume and identifying information will never be shared with a firm without your permission.
