With a broad range of practice areas and a strong commitment to social impact, we give you the flexibility to develop your expertise while maintaining a healthy work-life balance, whether you prefer remote-first or office-based working.

This is an excellent opportunity for an experienced litigation professional to assume a key leadership role whilst undertaking a small caseload of multi-track personal injury claims involving Employer’s Liability and Public Liability matters.

Key Responsibilities

  • Managing a reduced caseload of multi-track Employer’s Liability and Public Liability claims
  • Providing operational and technical guidance to the team
  • Day to day management of direct reports including allocation of cases, 121s and file reviews
  • Supporting business development, budgeting and forecasting

About You

  • Qualified Solicitor or CILEX Chartered Legal Executive (8+ years)
  • Proven experience managing EL/PL personal injury claims
  • Strong understanding of multi-track litigation
  • Excellent drafting, negotiation, and case management skills
  • Ability to undertake business development activity and financial analysis
