Clinical Negligence Solicitor

• Employee-owned firm, profit share and a real say in how the team grows
• Manage a varied clinical negligence caseload with genuine autonomy
• Be part of building a growing department, not just maintaining one

If you’re at the stage where you want more influence over your work, not just your caseload, but the direction of the team, this role gives you that platform.

You’ll join a developing clinical negligence offering where your input genuinely matters. From day one, you’ll run your own caseload of around 30–40 files, covering a broad mix of medical negligence matters. Alongside this, you’ll play a visible role in how the department evolves, contributing ideas, shaping processes, and helping grow the client base.

In the first few months, the focus is on getting settled and building relationships with clients and colleagues. Over time, you’ll take on more responsibility, both in terms of your caseload and your contribution to the wider team. There’s a clear expectation that you’ll help drive the department forward, whether through business development, improving workflows, or mentoring others.

The culture is open, collaborative and refreshingly non-corporate. As an employee-owned business, people are encouraged to contribute ideas and take ownership of their work. It’s a place where your voice carries weight, and where the success of the firm is shared.

Who we’re looking for

• Qualified Solicitor with clinical negligence experience
• Ability to manage a caseload independently
• Strong client care and communication skills
• Commercial awareness and interest in growing a department (Desired)
• Experience drafting legal documents and working with experts
• Familiarity with case management systems (Desired)
• Collaborative, proactive and client-focused approach
• Strong analytical and problem-solving skills

What you’ll be doing

• Managing a caseload of clinical negligence claims (approx. 30–40 files)
• Advising clients clearly on their options and guiding them through claims
• Drafting legal documents including statements, reports and pleadings
• Liaising with experts, counsel and third parties
• Building strong, trust-based client relationships
• Contributing to marketing and business development activity
• Collaborating with colleagues to improve processes and service delivery

Salary & Benefits

• Competitive salary (dependent on experience)
• Profit share after 6 months (employee-owned structure)
• 25 days holiday + bank holidays + additional Christmas closure days
• Health plan with cashback on treatments + virtual GP access
• Enhanced maternity pay
• Pension scheme
• Study support, training and funded qualifications
• Quarterly socials, birthday gifts and company events
