We have extensive experience in providing employment law advice to businesses in the financial services sector, including asset managers, hedge funds, private equity houses, investment banks, trading and broking houses, and pension funds.

Our specialist employment lawyers understand the complex regulatory landscape of the financial services sector and can address the unique workplace challenges faced by organisations in it. We combine expertise in employment law with knowledge of regulatory obligations to deliver practical, commercially focused solutions.

We advise on all aspects of employment law, including contract and policy drafting, disciplinary processes, team moves, defending and bringing claims, and regulatory overlap with the Senior Managers and Certification Regime (SMCR).

Examples of our work in this sector include:

• Defending a private equity house in a seven-figure bonus dispute.
• Providing strategic HR and employment law advice to a large pension fund on board and senior-level exits, policy drafting, and discrimination issues.
• Advising a bank on removal of its CEO.
