An opportunity for a Paralegal to join a large Birmingham firm, working within a successful and busy litigation team.
Client Details
A large Birmingham law firm.
Description
This is an opportunity to work within a litigation team in Birmingham city centre.
You will be working with lawyers and experienced fee earners, supporting them with their litigation files. The team acts for a range of insurance clients, advising on the defending of claims brought with an international aspect.
You will have the opportunity to handle your own files, as well as supporting more complex matters.
The team has a track record of supporting paralegals through the ILEX route, as they recognise the importance of career development.
Profile
Ideally you will have a good working knowledge of the Civil Procedure Rules from a paralegal role/assistant role within a law firm. Candidates with no experience would therefore not be suitable.
Language skills are essential for this role due to the international nature of the role - particularly Polish, German, French, Turkish or Romanian. If you have other language skills then it is worth applying too.
Job Offer
The chance to work for a large Birmingham firm with career progression.
