INDUSTRIAL DISEASE PARALEGAL – MANCHESTER
Industrial disease Paralegal – A great opportunity has arisen for a paralegal specialising in industrial disease to develop their career with one of the most respected occupational health teams in Manchester. Working in a dynamic team which spans the UK, you will handle a caseload of NIHL claims, whilst also supporting more experienced fee earners who handle high value asbestosis-related conditions.
THE ROLE AT A GLANCE
- Job title: Industrial Disease Paralegal / Legal Executive
- Location: Manchester
- Salary: £18,000 - £25,000
- Reports to: Partner
- Previous Experience: Proven litigated fast track industrial disease experience, preferably gained within a defendant insurance background, though claimant applicants will be considered.
THE CLIENT
This is a client who as established themselves as a dominant force in the market for legal services to the insurance sector. With a mixture of insurance clients as well as self-insured, they continue to offer perhaps the best variety of work amongst all the leading defendant firms with excellent training and support.
THE POSITION
Our client is recruiting for a qualified legal executive or experienced paralegal to handle a readily available caseload of NIHL matters. However, the role has been designed to offer clear progression and therefore affords the right candidate to gain exposure to higher value industrial disease work, such as mesothelioma.
This role is best suited to those with proven litigated experience who are looking for real progression and a clear step up. Ideally, you should be able to hit the ground running with minimal supervision as this particular team is experiencing a real increase in the number of industrial disease instructions.
THE PACKAGE
The package on offer is designed to attract the best candidate with a salary of £18,000 - £25,000 coupled with an attractive suite of benefits.
