We are looking for Solicitors, Chartered Legal Executives or Experienced Paralegals to join our market leading Fraud team in CSG at DAC Beachcroft.
Our Fraud team is a specialised multiple award-winning and dynamic team of lawyers defending both pre-litigated and litigated technical claims. It has a reputation for robustly defending fraud insurance claims and proactively tackling those organisations and professional enablers driving the claims, particularly within our projects and organised fraud specialisms. The team adopts a collaborative approach where both reactive and proactive investigation is promoted, working hand in hand with our clients and law enforcement agencies such as IFED and the new Regional Fraud teams.
This role offers office based, hybrid or remote working but you may be asked to come into our Birmingham office at least once a month or for training and client events as required.
The leadership team comprises Associates, Legal Directors and Partners who are very experienced and well respected by clients and who will help to support you to succeed.
What you will do?
* Be responsible for a caseload of predominantly litigated claims, with an appropriate level of supervision, potentially across a number of different clients. These claims will all have fraud concerns and be managed under Delegated and Non-Delegated authority agreements.
* Act as a point of contact for clients, demonstrating a level of knowledge and skill commensurate with experience.
* Ensure full compliance with clients' SLAs and DAC Beachcroft's internal protocols.
* Demonstrate a high level of financial management in respect of own portfolio.

* Build an awareness of the Firm's other services, developing effective internal and external networks.
* Maintain an awareness of the firm's strategies and plans.
* Maintain and develop technical knowledge through attendance at training sessions, reading appropriate publications and meeting Solicitors Regulatory Authority CPD requirements, where necessary.
* Treat confidential information in line with the firm's data security protocols.
* Prompt and accurate completion of MI.
Who you are
* Solicitor / Chartered Legal Executive / Experienced Paralegal with previous experience or demonstrable interest in this area of law,
* Ideally experience of litigation preferably gained within a personal injury environment, but this is not essential and we are open to candidates who have trained in a different area of law.

* Sound knowledge of the Civil Procedure Rules.
* Confident negotiator and communicator.
* Lateral thinker with strong investigation and analytical skills.
* Ability to work on own initiative without close supervision.
* A team player with a collegiate approach to knowledge sharing and problem solving.

* Reliable and professional behaviour demonstrated at all times.
What's in it for you?
