Credit Hire Fee Earner
- Take over an established Credit Hire caseload with immediate responsibility and no need to build work from scratch
- Handle predominantly Credit Hire matters with associated PI work in a stable, supportive team
- Join a long-established firm where you’ll be trusted, supported and given the opportunity to progress into more complex work
If you’re looking for a Credit Hire role where you can focus on running quality files without unnecessary micromanagement, this is an excellent opportunity to join a well-established team with a strong reputation in claimant work.
You’ll inherit an existing caseload of around 100 pre-issue files, with a particular focus on taxi credit hire claims alongside associated personal injury matters. From day one, you’ll be trusted to manage your own workload, progressing claims confidently through the MOJ Portal and OIC while delivering excellent outcomes for clients.
During your first few months, you’ll concentrate on taking over your caseload, building relationships with colleagues and ensuring files continue to progress smoothly. As you establish yourself, you’ll gain greater autonomy, consistently achieve your billing targets and, over time, have the opportunity to move onto higher-value and more technically challenging matters.
This is a close-knit, down-to-earth team where hard work is recognised and people are genuinely supported. Leadership is approachable, experienced and committed to helping lawyers develop long-term careers rather than simply focusing on short-term targets.

- NQ Solicitor or experienced Paralegal
- Strong experience handling Credit Hire claims
- Experience using the MOJ Portal and OIC
- Experience managing associated Personal Injury matters
- Ability to independently manage a caseload of around 100 pre-issue files
- Strong negotiation and communication skills
- Excellent organisation and file management
- Proactive, reliable and able to work with minimal supervision
- Experience handling taxi credit hire claims (desirable)
What you’ll be doing
- Managing your own caseload of predominantly Credit Hire claims with associated PI matters
- Handling a significant volume of taxi credit hire claims
- Progressing claims through the MOJ Portal and OIC
- Managing liability, quantum and negotiations on pre-issue files
- Maintaining accurate file management and compliance standards
- Building relationships with insurers and credit hire organisations
- Achieving realistic monthly billing targets
- Supporting colleagues and taking on more complex work as your experience develops
Salary & Benefits

- Supportive leadership with over 30 years’ expertise
- Stable, long-established firm with excellent job security
