Building the employer of the future?

You have years of experience in labor law and employee participation: reorganizations, works council processes, collective labor agreements, complex cases. You're on the right track content-wise, but you're missing the space to truly build: on propositions, sustainable employment relationships, and a people-centered practice. At LEAN LAWYERS, you get that space.

About LEAN LAWYERS

LEAN is an innovative, 'climate-positive' B Corp law firm in Utrecht that helps entrepreneurs, employers, and impact companies from home and abroad with legal solutions that work in practice. We believe in modern, people-oriented employers and contribute to organizations in transition - from startup to corporate.

Your role

• You advise and litigate in complex labor law and participation cases: reorganizations, (collective) dismissals, works council processes, harmonizations, collective labor agreements, and governance.
• You help employers become future-proof: legally solid, people-oriented, and sustainable.
• You develop scalable propositions, training programs for HR and management, and toolkits for sustainable employment relationships.
• You build and lead a team, mentor juniors/mediors, and contribute to the strategic direction of the office.

Who you are

• Minimum of 10 years of experience as an employment lawyer, with demonstrable experience in employee participation and not afraid to litigate if necessary.
• Experience at a large or specialized firm, and now a desire for more control and less political fuss.
• Strong in combining legal depth with pragmatic advice in clear language.
• Interest in topics such as sustainability, good employment practices, and the role of labor in the new economy.
• You have clear ideas about the future of labor law and employee participation and want to take the lead in it.
• You want to be visible: as a trusted advisor, speaker, author, or trainer, and already have (partially) your own practice.
• You possess the 'LEAN DNA'.
• You speak and write fluently in Dutch and English and are able to attract clients and build a practice.

Do you recognize yourself in this? Then read on, in particular.

What you find at LEAN

• Een eerlijk carrière/partnerpad, transparant over verwachtingen en wederzijdse investering met veel autonomie, geen kantoorpolitiek, korte lijnen en een team dat met elkaar samenwerkt.

• Veel lol, regelmatig borrels, events, onze eigen LEAN ⛷ Wintersummit, een gezonde balans tussen werk en privé en elke dag een verdomd goede (vega)lunch.

• market-conform salary that matches your experience, responsibilities, and our type of office;
• a minimum of 27 vacation days, a MacBook and company phone, a fixed monthly expense allowance, a self-allocated mobility budget, a good pension scheme, and the opportunity to join our collective health insurance through Balieplus;
• Employees can, in consultation, convert a day off on an official holiday to another holiday that is important to them;
• individual training and development opportunities, including for example post-academic specialization courses / training programs, such as the Grotius Academy;
