Working Hours: 35 hours, Monday – Friday, 9am – 5pm
Are you interested in a dynamic and fast-paced role as a Case Handler within the legal sector? Have you previously managed your own caseload and served as the primary point of contact for clients?
Would you like to work for a growing and forward thinking firm who invest in their staff and offer training, development and progression?
If so, we have the perfect opportunity for you. We are looking to recruit a hard-working individual to join our thriving Pre-Litigation department within our Road Traffic Accident Team. This is an exciting opportunity to be part of our successful team and contribute to our success.
The Role
As a Case Handler within our Pre-Litigation department, specifically within our Road Traffic Accident Team, you will be managing your own caseload of pre-litigated cases and negotiating claims for liability and damages. You will act as a point of contact for clients, providing high quality advice on a wide range of injury claims (predominantly pre-litigation but with exposure to litigated claims), where appropriate. We are ideally looking for someone who has previous Case Handler experience and exposure to a fast-paced office environment. Experience within a Personal Injury team would be advantageous but not essential.
Candidates should be client focused and proactive with a positive attitude and a flexible approach. They will be a strong team player with a caring and compassionate nature, particularly when dealing with emotional and sensitive matters.
