Position

Jonathan is a partner and specialist employment lawyer with over 20 years of experience advising on employment law issues.

Jonathan's practice has a particular emphasis on restructuring, employee relations issues, TUPE/outsourcing, transactional support and senior executive exits. His clients are similarly diverse from law firms and hedge funds to football clubs and retail brands.

Although part of Jonathan's role as a partner involves managing client relationships, he is still very much a hands-on lawyer. His clients range across all industry sectors although in recent years has developed more of a focus on the financial services, legal and pharmaceutical sectors. He has been recognised for his employment law expertise in both Chambers and Legal 500 for a number of years. Jonathan is a member of the Employment Lawyers Association, chair of Lewis Silkin’s TUPE group and Editor of the Sweet & Maxwell Transfer of Undertakings Bulletin.

Jonathan's aim is to assist clients in managing employment issues of all kinds in a swift, commercial and pragmatic fashion, consistent with their corporate culture; to add value by properly understanding their business and through proactive engagement; and to form long term relationships built on trust, personal chemistry, and positive outcomes.
