Job opening: Labor Law Attorney

Are you looking for substantive depth, independence, and a close-knit team? Come work at Joosten Advocaten.

We are looking for an employment lawyer who thrives on challenging cases and enjoys taking responsibility.
At Joosten Advocaten, you will have the opportunity to build your own practice within a firm that stands for quality, tranquility, and long-lasting client relationships.

You will work in a team where knowledge sharing and collaboration are a given, and where there is room to grow, both professionally and personally.

About the position

As an employment lawyer, you will handle cases independently from start to finish. You will advise and litigate in cases concerning dismissal, reintegration, wage claims, employment contracts, and employer liability. You will think strategically with clients, negotiate with opposing parties, and represent clients in proceedings.

At Joosten Advocaten, you will have the freedom to develop your own working methods, while being able to bounce ideas off experienced colleagues.
The lines of communication are short and the working atmosphere is professional yet informal: we work hard, but with consideration for each other.

What we ask

A recent or nearly completed vocational training program
Experience in labor law or a strong affinity with this area of law
Independent, meticulous, and committed approach
Good communication skills, both verbal and written
Ability to advise clients in an accessible and clear manner

What we offer

An independent and varied position within a specialized office
A team with extensive knowledge of labor law and personal injury
Competitive salary and excellent terms of employment
Room for personal development and growth
A pleasant, informal working atmosphere
Drinks, winter sports trips, and (if possible) sailing on the office boat
