• Active Missouri Bar license — required
• At least one year of workers' compensation experience preferred; strong candidates with relevant litigation background considered
• Eligibility to obtain Illinois Bar license (UBE score or reciprocity)
• Ability to excel in a fast‑paced, high‑volume environment
• Exceptional organizational, prioritization, and time‑management skills
