Location: London
Job Description:

Leading In-House Firm – Defendant Clinical Negligence role – open PQE

Are you a Defendant Clinical Negligence solicitor looking to bring your litigation experience to a role that supports healthcare professionals rather than chasing billable hours? I am working exclusively with a leading MDO firm in Central London that is looking for a Solicitor with Healthcare Litigation to join their team

Why this role?

Working in-house gives you the opportunity to:

  • Manage clinical negligence litigation whilst having the opportunity to gain exposure to regulatory cases, coroner’s inquests, and disciplinary investigations
  • Provide legal advice directly to medical professional members
  • Work in a collaborative team environment

Benefits of joining from private practice:

  • Predictable work-life balance with home/office flexibility
  • No billable hour pressure – focus on quality legal work and client service

Generous benefits package including:

  • 15% employer pension contribution
  • 27 days annual leave + 8 bank holidays
  • Private medical insurance
  • Holiday buy/sell scheme
  • Employee Assistance Program and wellbeing initiatives
  • Agile working

What I’m looking for:

  • Qualified Solicitor or Legal Executive with experience in Defendant Clinical Negligence or Healthcare Regulatory
  • Self reliant litigator with excellent negotiation and communication skills
  • Strong organisational skills and analytical ability

You will be experiencing a broader medico-legal role than in private practice, with the satisfaction of helping healthcare professionals navigate complex legal challenges.

Apply now for immediate consideration!
