YOUR MISSION

As a Senior Labour Litigation Lawyer, you will be a senior individual contributor in our HQ Legal Team, owning high-stakes and strategically critical labour litigation and collective labour matters, mainly in Spain.

This is not a generalist or HR-adjacent role. You will act as a frontline labour lawyer, trusted to take ownership of complex disputes, interact with labour authorities, and drive legal strategy in situations with real operational and reputational impact.

THE JOURNEY
  • Manage and provide legal consultation on contentious labour litigation, mainly in Spain.
  • Define and execute legal strategy for high-risk labour disputes, including matters with collective implications.
  • Manage autonomously external labour law firms, including instructing, negotiating fees, litigation strategy, pleadings and hearings.
  • Be fully on top of each case, managing deadlines, next steps and legal risk.
  • Act as a key legal contact for matters involving labour authorities and inspections.
  • Interpret and apply collective bargaining agreements and labour regulations.
  • Advise internal stakeholders on complex employment decisions (disciplinary actions, dismissals, sanctions).
  • Think strategically, escalate when needed, and own outcomes end-to-end.
  • Get your hands dirty: when there is a serious labour issue, you will help fix it.
WHAT YOU’LL BRING TO THE RIDE
  • ✔ Law degree obtained in Spain and qualification to practice law
  • ✔ Clear specialization in Labour / Employment Law
  • ✔ 7+ years of professional experience practicing labour law
  • ✔ Proven experience in labour litigation
  • ✔ Exposure to collective labour matters (e.g. unions, works councils, collective disputes)
  • ✔ Full professional fluency in Spanish and English
  • Experience with labour vs self-employed reclassification
  • Exposure to administrative litigation or Social Security matters
  • Prior in-house experience in operationally complex environments (logistics, retail, tech)
