Andrew Souter

Senior Solicitor - Employment Law

Get in touch

Andrew is a senior employment solicitor and HR professional who helps businesses manage people issues with practical, commercially focused advice.

He qualified as a solicitor in 2013 and has worked in both private practice and senior in-house HR roles. His experience includes serving as Head of HR at the University of Oxford, as well as employment solicitor roles at Broadfield Law UK LLP and Deloitte.

That combination of legal and operational experience gives Andrew a first-hand understanding of the pressures employers face when managing people, change and risk.

Andrew advises on a range of matters including:

  • recruitment and employment documentation
  • disciplinary and grievance matters
  • sickness absence
  • performance management
  • restructuring and redundancy
  • TUPE
  • restrictive covenants
  • changes to terms and conditions
  • settlement agreements

Andrew’s approach is pragmatic, empathetic and commercially focused. He understands that employment issues often involve both legal risk and sensitive people considerations and helps clients find solutions that are workable in practice.

He also has experience in international legal work, including inward investment and business immigration matters.

Outside work, Andrew is a trustee of One-Eighty, a charity supporting children and young people with mental health and behavioural challenges to re-engage with education. At weekends, he can usually be found being chased around the kitchen table by his young son and daughter.
