Three conversations employers should be having right now…

Following our recent Employment Law Seminar with Cas Carrington, there was plenty to take away.

Employment law continues to evolve, and for employers, it’s not just about knowing what’s changing — it’s about understanding what those changes could mean for your organisation and your people.

Here are three areas from the seminar that we think are worth continuing the conversation around:

1. Unfair dismissal is changing, and the cap is going.
From 1 January 2027, employees need only 6 months' service (down from 2 years) to claim unfair dismissal, and the compensation cap is removed. Probation processes need to be rigorous, with regular reviews, so that problems are spotted before the 6-month mark. The speaker expects high earners to bring more claims. Fire-and-rehire over restricted changes (such as shift patterns) will also become automatically unfair, so build flexibility into contracts now.

2. The tribunal claim window doubles in October.
Claims can be lodged within 6 months instead of 3. That means longer exposure to claims, and the speaker said backlogs are already pushing hearings out to 2027 to 2029. Settlement conversations stay open for longer, and witnesses may have left by the time of a hearing.

3. New duties start in October.
Employers are liable for harassment of staff by customers, contractors and visitors unless they've taken all reasonable steps. This covers all protected characteristics, not just sexual harassment, so risk assessments need to cover it.
Unions will have a right of access to workplaces. Employers must respond to a request within a set time (the transcript says 15 days, then 25 days) or face referral to the Central Arbitration Committee. Read the code of practice before a request arrives.

Want to explore these changes in more detail?

We’ve pulled together a blog covering the key points from the seminar.

Is your job search feeling a little… quiet?

First things first: don’t take the silence personally.

A slower hiring process doesn’t automatically mean your CV isn’t good enough or that you’re doing something wrong. Hiring decisions can take time, and sometimes the lack of response simply means you don’t have all the information yet.

So, what can you do?

Don’t go into “waiting mode”
If you’re waiting to hear about one role, keep your search moving. Don’t let one application become your whole job search.

Focus on quality, not just quantity
Applying for every role you could possibly do can be exhausting. Be selective and focus your time on opportunities that genuinely fit your skills and goals.

Keep conversations going
Speak to recruiters, former colleagues and people in your industry. Not every useful conversation needs to lead to an immediate vacancy.

Use the quieter periods productively
Refresh your CV, update LinkedIn, build a skill or revisit what you actually want from your next move.

Give yourself some perspective
Job searching can knock your confidence, particularly when you’re not getting feedback. But silence isn’t a judgement on your ability.

Keep moving, but don’t feel like you have to push harder every day.

A good job search is about consistency, not constantly being busy.

If you’re considering your next move, the Pursuit team is always happy to have a conversation.

What would make you say yes to a new job?

For some, it’s the salary. For others, it might be more flexibility, better career progression, a great manager or simply finding a role they actually enjoy going to each day.

Everyone’s priorities are different — and they can change depending on where you are in your career and life.

So, if you were looking for your next opportunity right now, what would be at the top of your list?

Salary
Flexibility
Career progression
Company culture
A great manager
More interesting work

Or is there something else that matters more to you?
We’d love to know.

A huge thank you to everyone who joined us yesterday for our Autumn Employment Law Seminar, and of course to Cas Carrington for another insightful and engaging session.

With employment law continuing to evolve, Cas took us through some of the key developments employers need to be aware of, including the Employment Rights Act 2025, changes around unfair dismissal and zero-hours contracts, union rights and the latest case law.

There was plenty to discuss, lots of great questions and, as always, it was lovely to catch up with so many of our clients in person.

We hope everyone who joined us found the morning useful and came away with some valuable insights to take back to their organisations.

Thank you for being part of it!

It’s been a busy day at Pursuit! 🎙️

After this morning’s Employment Law Seminar, Lorraine was back behind the mic this afternoon — and welcoming a familiar face back to In Pursuit of Talent.

Holly from Holsm is joining Lorraine for another conversation, and we’re looking forward to sharing this with you.

Our Employment Law Seminar is well underway this morning!

It’s great to have so many of our clients joining us, along with employment law specialist Cas Carrington, for a morning of practical updates, valuable insights and plenty of discussion.

Cas is taking us through what’s changing in employment law and, importantly, what these developments could mean for employers and their teams.

A really informative morning so far — fuelled, of course, by plenty of coffee! ☕️

Tomorrow’s the day!

We’re looking forward to welcoming our clients to our Employment Law Seminar tomorrow, where we’ll once again be joined by employment law specialist Cas Carrington.

With so much happening in employment law at the moment, it promises to be a really useful morning — a chance to hear Cas’s latest insights, ask questions and, of course, catch up with some familiar faces.

The Pursuit team will be there bright and early getting everything ready, and we’re looking forward to seeing you all.

See you tomorrow!

Thinking of making a move? Here’s where to start

Deciding it might be time for a new role is one thing. Knowing what to do next is another.

Before you start sending out applications, take a little time to get clear on what you actually want from your next move.

1. Think about why you want to move

Is it progression, salary, flexibility, culture, a new challenge — or something else? Knowing what’s driving the change will help you focus on the right opportunities.

2. Give your CV a refresh

You don’t need to rewrite everything. Make sure your most recent experience is up to date and focus on your achievements, not just your responsibilities.

3. Check your LinkedIn profile

Does it reflect where you are now? Update your experience, skills and headline so recruiters and employers can quickly understand what you do.

4. Know what matters to you

Think beyond the job title. Consider location, hybrid working, salary, progression, company culture and the things you’re not prepared to compromise on.

5. Talk to a recruiter

You don’t have to wait until you’re actively applying. A confidential conversation can give you an idea of what’s happening in the market, the roles available and what your experience could be worth.

Most importantly, don’t feel you have to rush it.

The right career move starts with understanding what you want from the next one.

Walking past the Institute of Chartered Accountants in London yesterday brought back a few memories…

Nicky first became a client of Lorraine's when she was just 21, and neither of them could have imagined then that, all these years later, they'd still be such good friends.

They've both faced plenty of challenges along the way, celebrated the successes and watched their careers and lives change over the years.

Nicky has been there through so much of Lorraine's journey and has played a very special part in her success. More importantly, she’s remained a wonderful friend throughout it all.

It’s funny how walking past a familiar place can suddenly remind you just how far you’ve come, and the people who have been there along the way.
