Our award-winning Counter Fraud Team is rapidly expanding!

We are on the lookout for Claims Handlers, Paralegals and Solicitors to join our industry leading Counter Fraud department based at our Media City, Salford Quays office.

Our counter-fraud department is the biggest of its type in the market, running over 700 cases to contested trials each year and winning most of them. The team is filled with legal professionals at all levels, working in an engaging and friendly environment. Our people pride themselves on making an impact through providing an excellent, results and solutions focussed service to our clients.

There is a great team ethos and we encourage our people to be involved in various team and firm wide initiatives centred on personal development and wellbeing, not just the work we do.

It's preferable that you will have previous experience within a similar role handling a full and varied case load; preferably Defendant and/or previous experience working within the counter-fraud insurance sector.

You will need to bring an enthusiastic and self-motivated attitude with a desire to achieve and exceed targets combined with the ability to work in a fast-paced environment. The ability to demonstrate initiative and creative problem solving is highly desirable.

We would like to see a strong work ethic and a committed team player. We are a close knit and stable team that like to share ideas and experience with a view to achieving the best results that we can for our clients and to be confident and assertive and willing to engage in public speaking.

Progression

As a firm we are fully committed to nurturing and growing talent, and part of that is recognising the results of an individual’s work and rewarding high performance.

Progression isn’t just limited to qualification. Many people within Counter Fraud have had the opportunity to be promoted into management and operational positions and/or develop as technical specialists.

Above all the firm values potential, if you are inquisitive, hardworking and passionate about achieving great results, HF is a great place to develop your career.

What’s in it for you?

We offer hybrid working and flexible working hours for all, so for those slightly further afield this is a great opportunity to progress your career at an award-winning firm!
