When to use this template

We have used this senior employment agreement to hire 20+ employees at Genie AI.

The agreement is structured so that all the key commercial terms that would change per employee are kept at the bottom in a table in the schedule, to make it easy to use on an ongoing basis

Since this is a senior employment contract, it contains a significant amount of provisions for restrictive covenants, such as non-solicitation (enticing away of customers, business or employees after the employee has left) and non-compete clauses

Key issues covered in this template

  • Remuneration and benefits
  • Pension arrangements
  • Incentive schemes
  • Restrictive covenants
  • Other employment
  • Place and hours of work
  • Gifts and inducements
  • Intellectual property rights
  • Illness and medical reports
  • Term and termination
  • Payment in lieu
  • Garden leave
  • Grievance procedure
  • Disciplinary and dismissal procedures
  • Remote working policy

What to watch out for

  • There is provision to make reference to an incentive scheme such as an EMI option scheme, however it is recommended to keep this in a separate agreement, in order to avoid a binding promise and avoid variations to the incentive scheme resulting in variations to the terms of employment
