Founded by Emma Monsellier, an Employment Law and HR specialist with over 20 years’ experience, Monsellier Law operates across two closely connected areas: HR and Legal.

We are now looking to grow our HR and Employment Relations team and are open to speaking with candidates at different levels of experience.
