This is a great opportunity for a Credit Hire & Personal Injury fee earner to join a well-established team in Altrincham, stepping straight into an existing caseload with the trust and autonomy to manage files properly.

The role is suited to someone who enjoys responsibility and wants to run their own files without being micromanaged. You’ll focus heavily on Credit Hire work (including taxi hire claims) with associated PI matters.

  • Comfortable managing around 100 pre-issue files independently
  • Strong organisational skills with excellent compliance and diary management
  • Confident communicator with insurers and credit hire organisations
  • Proactive, reliable and able to work with minimal supervision

What you’ll be doing

  • Managing a caseload of predominantly Credit Hire matters with associated PI claims
  • Handling a high proportion of taxi credit hire cases
  • Assessing liability, quantum and settlement strategy
  • Negotiating with insurers and credit hire organisations
  • Maintaining accurate file notes, compliance and financial hygiene
  • Taking over and progressing an existing live caseload
  • Supporting junior colleagues where appropriate as experience grows

Salary & Benefits

  • Salary up to £35,000, depending on experience
  • Office-based role in Altrincham, close to train and bus stations
  • Supportive, experienced management with a hands-off approach once settled
  • Stable team with long-standing leadership
  • Opportunity to progress into higher-value and more complex Credit Hire / PI work
  • Long-term role for someone who wants responsibility and consistency
  • Friendly, close-knit office environment with realistic expectations
