* Assisting senior colleagues on high-value catastrophic injury claims
* Involvement in liability investigations, policy coverage analysis, and quantum assessments
* Building and maintaining strong client relationships
* Mentoring and supporting junior team members
What we’re looking for:
* 1–5 years PQE, with experience in defendant personal injury
* Claimant background also welcome, if you’re keen to transition to defendant work
* A confident communicator who’s commercially minded and client-focused
What’s on offer:
* Salary between £40,000–£55,000 depending on experience
* Hybrid working – 2 days in the office, 3 from home
* Bonus scheme
* 25 days holiday + option to buy 5 more
