An exciting opportunity has arisen with a leading Scottish law firm for a Solicitor to join its Scottish Liability team, based in either Edinburgh or Glasgow. This is an excellent chance to gain hands-on experience in a well-respected team handling a variety of complex and high-quality personal injury and liability defence work.
The role involves defending a broad spectrum of insurance liability claims, including personal injury cases ranging from low-value to large loss. Key areas include employers’ liability, public liability, motor claims, motor crime, property damage, HSE/regulatory matters, and fatal accident inquiries. The successful candidate will work closely with experienced senior lawyers and be encouraged to take ownership of their work, with exposure to both routine and sensitive matters.
This position is suited to a solicitor at NQ–1 year PQE level, ideally based in Edinburgh, though applications from those based in Glasgow will also be considered – ideally with experience gained at a defender personal injury firm. A proactive approach, strong attention to detail, and a willingness to take initiative and engage fully with the work are essential qualities for this role. The team is very open to considering a wide range of litigation experience, including civil, criminal, and commercial litigation.
This is a full-time, permanent position offering excellent training, great client exposure, and long-term career development within a supportive and dynamic environment.
Should this role be of interest, please do not hesitate to contact either Teddie or Cameron for an initial and confidential discussion. (Assignment 17532)
