Description

Ready to take the next step in your personal injury career?
If you have experience in personal injury or litigation and are looking to build your expertise within a supportive, high‑performing team, this could be the opportunity for you.

We are recruiting  Newly Qualified Lawyer to join our Multi‑Track Accident team, based in Bristol, Birmingham, Cardiff, Leeds, Liverpool, Manchester or Newcastle. This is an excellent role for a confident fee earner who enjoys managing responsibility while continuing to grow technically and professionally.

The role...

You will play a key role supporting on a varied caseload of multi‑track personal injury matters, while also progressing your own files. Initially, this will focus on intermediate, non‑issued cases, with clear progression to issued matters as your experience develops. You’ll receive structured supervision and support throughout, ensuring you feel confident as your responsibilities increase.

Working closely with experienced colleagues, you’ll gain exposure to the full lifecycle of complex personal injury claims—from initial instruction through to settlement—while contributing to a collaborative and fast‑paced team environment.

Who we are looking for....

We’re keen to hear from candidates with fee‑earning experience in personal injury or a similar litigation setting. Solicitor qualification is desirable but not essential.

You’ll have experience managing your own caseload or assisting on litigated matters, with a solid understanding of the litigation process. Experience in fast track or intermediate track claims is advantageous. Strong organisation, attention to detail, confidence using case management systems, and a professional, empathetic approach to client care are all essential.

This role is ideal for someone looking to deepen their technical expertise and take on greater responsibility within a supportive Birmingham‑based team.

What we offer you...

We’re committed to creating a workplace where you feel supported, valued, and able to thrive. Our culture is built on collaboration, wellbeing, and helping you grow—professionally and personally. As part of our team, you’ll enjoy a comprehensive benefits package, including:

  • Financial & Lifestyle Benefits
     
    • Generous contributory pension scheme to help you plan for the future 
    • Life assurance for peace of mind 
    • Permanent health insurance offering long-term security 
    • Annual travel and parking loans 
    • Cycle to Work scheme 
    • Subsidised sports and social club to help you stay active and connected

  • Health & Wellbeing
     
    • Healthcare Cash Plan (Medicash) for everyday medical costs 
    • Employee Assistance Programme providing 24/7 confidential support 
    • A genuinely supportive, people-first working environment that prioritises teamwork and work-life balance 

  • Time Off & Family Support
     
    • 23 days’ annual leave plus bank holidays 
    • An additional 5 days’ leave over Christmas 
    • Enhanced maternity and paternity pay, supporting you and your family when it matters most
