Head of Group Litigation – London or Manchester
Location: Hybrid | London or Manchester
Strategic leadership opportunity in a growing, mission-led legal business
We’re working with a rapidly scaling, SRA-regulated law firm that’s rethinking how consumer litigation is delivered — and they’re now hiring a Head of Group Litigation to lead from the front.
This is a genuine step-up role for someone who’s led teams or high-volume litigation workstreams and wants to take on broader strategic responsibility across areas including data breach, financial mis-selling, bank fraud, and motor finance.
What You’ll Be Doing
* Leading the group claims function, managing multiple high-performing teams
* Designing and implementing smarter, tech-enabled processes
* Mentoring senior case handlers and setting the tone on quality and delivery
* Working closely with leadership to shape the firm's wider growth strategy
What You’ll Bring
* 5+ years’ experience in litigation, class actions, or consumer claims
* A track record of team or project leadership — ready for more
* Strong commercial judgement and an interest in legal innovation
* Experience in group litigation, fraud, or mis-selling (helpful but not essential)
Why This Role?
* A rare chance to build and lead at scale — in a business that’s just getting started
* Ethically driven, well-capitalised, and already delivering impact
* Hybrid working, open to London or Manchester-based professionals
* Sponsorship and relocation considered for exceptional candidates
If you're ready to step into a leadership role with purpose, and want to shape the future of group litigation in the UK, we’d love to hear from you.
