  • Up to £45,000 salary + hybrid working + direct mentorship

We’re working with a modern, wellbeing-focused firm in Cheadle to recruit a Personal Injury Solicitor who’s ready to reconnect with the reasons they got into law in the first place.

This is a unique opportunity to leave behind any burnout culture, and join a genuinely collaborative and supportive team.

This firm is a safe space to grow, supported directly by an experienced founder who values autonomy, flexibility, and real professional development.

There are no targets, no hierarchy, and no micromanagement, just space to thrive.

Who we’re looking for

  • Qualified Solicitor with experience in personal injury (claimant or defendant)
  • Able to manage files independently while receiving ongoing support
  • Open to expanding into other areas of law over time
  • Strong client communication and case management skills
  • Someone who values trust, collaboration and flexibility over rigid targets
  • Personality-wise: down-to-earth, empathetic, self-motivated and team-oriented


What you’ll be doing

  • Managing a personal injury caseload from inception to settlement
  • With support, gradually building experience in civil, commercial litigation or family law
  • Working alongside paralegals and admin staff in a close-knit team
  • Supporting junior team members and participating in internal firm initiatives
  • Building strong internal relationships and enjoying a positive, people-first culture
  • Optional: engaging in BD or networking as your confidence grows

Salary & Benefits

  • Up to £45,000 depending on experience
  • 31 days’ holiday (including bank holidays), increasing with tenure
  • Birthday day off
  • Pension scheme
  • Private medical insurance
  • Casual office dress
  • No targets or KPIs — quality over quantity
  • Excellent local reputation and client base
