The Role

You will join a sub-team and provide supervision to a team of paralegals who conduct work for clients across retail, utilities, government and technology sectors.

  • Utilities: Overcharging, service disruptions
  • Financial Institutions: Withheld funds, KYC issues, lost parcels
  • Retail & Hospitality: Discrimination, defective goods, installation disputes

What experience do you need?

  • Experience in commercial debt recovery or consumer claims – defendant or claimant
  • Qualified solicitor or chartered legal executive with at least 3 years PQE
  • Strong technical litigation skills
  • Previous experience supervising or managing volume workstreams is an advantage, but not essential

What's in it for you?

  • This a unique role and has a career path you can create
  • Excellent salary and benefits – equal for both solicitor and chartered legal executives
  • To be part of a growing team
