Job description

Litigation Solicitor

Belfast / Hybrid

£35,000-£45,000 plus company benefits and flexible working

Your new firm.

Signatus are actively recruiting multiple Litigation solicitors to join a large regional law firm based in Belfast. This firm is globally recognised and offers access to work from GB/ROI and NI legal markets. They are growing their Defendant Motor Insurance teams and have roles across casualty, Personal Injury, Fraud, and EL/PL.

Solicitors with experience in defence insurance matters (and with any of the above) are ideal. However, we are also interested in speaking with solicitors from Plaintiff backgrounds or those who have worked for insurance companies previously as they can offer in-house training to meet the needs of the role.

Dual-qualified solicitors are in demand but again this is not a requirement. Qualification in any jurisdiction is welcomed.

As a litigation solicitor, you will join one of the most proactive and top billing teams in the firm. Their dedicated Insurance team serves a broad range of insurers, run-off syndicates, brokers, private companies, and the self-insured. Litigation solicitors handle a range of motor cases and assist the Insurance Team generally.

Notwithstanding defence experience, a candidate who can demonstrate a real interest in Defendant insurance claims and who thrives in a collegiate team environment will be of high interest.

Your new package

1. High starting salary above market norm for PQE level and top class benefits package
2. Top-quality work
3. Inclusive and supportive culture
4. Support from experienced colleagues
5. Excellent Training and Development Opportunities
6. Exposure to the national firms caseloads but retaining full access to local client base too

All about you

We are considering applicants from NQ - 4 years PQE initially but have scope to consider other PQE levels also, particularly if there is a dual or tri-qualified status with some relevant litigation experience to work with.

Who to contact?
