We operate out of offices in the UK and employ over 60 specialist solicitors. Our legal teams guide, support, defend and protect clients through a wide range of key legal services.

We are looking for a civil litigator (6-10 PQE) to join our legal expenses insurance Civil Litigation team. The team forms part of the firm's wider Civil Litigation department, which currently comprises of 14 fee earners and 3 legal administrators.

The work is fast-moving, varied and challenging, and the successful candidate will receive full training in our internal practices and procedures.

Key Responsibilities:

  • Provide initial prospects opinions to insurers on a wide variety of civil disputes, EL/PL, including those relating to breach of contract, nuisance, property disputes, boundary disputes, professional negligence and construction
  • Dealing with both claimant and defendant cases
  • Managing a case load of your own, including recommending reserves and setting strategies under the supervision of senior fee earners.

Requirements:

  • Have existing general commercial litigation experience
  • Have a good understanding of the Civil Procedure Rules
  • Previous experience dealing with insurance claims would be nice to have but not essential (in particular, legal expenses insurance claims) and may well come to you from an established insurance-focused firm or team
  • Be accustomed to running their own caseload under supervision
  • Demonstrate strong communication and organisational skills with the ability to prioritise workload
  • Have good IT skills, certainly with experience in using Microsoft Office 2010 and case management systems (preferably Partner for Windows)
  • Be able to work under pressure
  • Deliver against set timeframes and display key time management skills when prioritising tasks to ensure compliance with these
  • Have high attention to detail and accuracy in their work
  • Demonstrate first-class client care and communication skills across all levels
  • Demonstrate an ability to develop relationships with key internal and external partners
  • Have excellent written communication skills
  • Be an effective teammate, demonstrating a positive 'can do' demeanour and displaying co-operative interaction with team members

What's in it for you?

  • A great starting salary plus annual bonus & strong benefits package…
  • 25 days paid holiday plus Bank Holidays, with the opportunity to buy / sell extra leave
  • Fantastic company pension scheme, private medical and dental cover, life assurance, travel insurance cover, income protection, season ticket loan as well as other great benefits on offer
  • There are countless opportunities to learn new skills and develop in your career and we can provide the support needed to do just that
