Key findings
Tribunal's reasoningMr Stewartson was employed by Reus Construction Ltd as a Commercial Manager from 4 December 2020 to 13 May 2021. The tribunal found that he had been offered a Commercial Director role on 1 April 2021 on terms that were subject to references, ID, CV, qualifications and proof of right to work, but he rejected that role and remained employed as Commercial Manager. The parties' correspondence also showed that a one-month notice term was understood to apply in relation to termination.

How we got this data
Case essentials (reference, date, judge, venue, country, claim categories) are extracted from the structured metadata gov.uk publishes alongside each decision. Parties and monetary figures are extracted from the judgment PDF text. Key findings and per-claim outcomes require a second extraction pass that is not yet complete for this case — until then, the primary source linked above is the authoritative record.
