The role

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.

Key Responsibilities

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.

Skills & Expertise

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.
