Paralegal / Litigation Executive: Motor & Casualty: Large & Complex Loss
At HF, we do things differently. We recognize the value of our employees and understand that they set us apart from our competitors. If you want to experience what life is like as a lawyer at HF, consider our Paralegal (also known as Litigation Executive at HF) vacancy within our Large & Complex Loss team in Cardiff.
What will you be doing?
You will assist a Partner and, at times, other Fee Earners as part of our Motor & Casualty team. Ideally, you have completed a law degree/GDL/LPC or have equivalent qualifications, or have previous file handling experience or worked in the insurance industry. You will gain exposure to high-quality and challenging Large & Complex Loss claims, including catastrophic injury cases such as brain injury, spinal injury, and amputation claims, on behalf of national insurers.
This is an excellent opportunity to support complex claims under expert guidance in a collaborative environment.
You will provide clients with updates and ensure their legal affairs are handled professionally and efficiently, supporting the smooth operation of the firm.
What’s in it for you?
HF has a strong reputation for developing and nurturing employees, with many opportunities for progression. Join a close-knit, friendly team that is supportive and flexible, allowing you to shine and build a successful legal career. We hire based on potential, so enthusiasm and eagerness to learn are highly valued.
We are not your stereotypical corporate law firm. We offer flexible working, a relaxed dress code, hybrid working arrangements, and flexible hours.

* 25 days’ annual leave (increasing to 30 with service)
* Company pension scheme
* Enhanced parental leave
* Cycle to Work scheme
* Electric Vehicle Scheme (eligibility applies)
* Life insurance and income protection
* Employee Assistance Programme & Digital GP
* Season ticket loans

What do I need?
You should have completed a law degree, LPC, or GDL, with 6-12 months experience in a claim handling role, supporting a large loss defendant caseload. An understanding of insurance is advantageous. An enthusiastic mindset and willingness to learn are essential.
