Trabajos litigation en Newcastle Upon TyneCrear alertas

There are plenty of senior PI roles where “leadership” really means carrying a big caseload while occasionally helping the person sitting next to you.\n \n \n This isn’t one of them.\n \n \n I’m working with an established North East law firm looking to appoint an experienced Solicitor Team Leader into its contested litigation department.\n \n \n And alongside the step up in responsibility, there is a genuinely important bonus element attached to the role.\n \n \n This is not one of those positions where the financial upside disappears the moment you move away from pure fee earning. They want someone taking real responsibility for a team, and the reward structure is there to recognise that.\n \n \n The role sits across serious injury and contested RTA work, with exposure to some genuinely interesting issues around liability, causation and allegations of dishonesty. There will also be crossover with the wider EL/PL practice, so they are looking for someone with a fairly broad claimant PI background rather than somebody who has spent their entire career in one narrow area.\n \n \n They are ideally looking around the 4–6 year PQE mark, although they are much more interested in the quality and breadth of your experience than whether you have previously had “Team Leader” written on your business card.\n \n \n Serious injury experience would be particularly useful, alongside a good grounding in RTA, EL/PL, disputed liability and causation. Experience dealing with dishonesty allegations would be another advantage.\n \n \n What makes the role interesting is that this is genuinely about leading people.\n \n \n You will work with experienced fee earners who largely know what they are doing and need guidance, oversight and someone they trust when a difficult issue lands on their desk. At the other end of the spectrum, there are more junior lawyers who will occasionally need a bit more support, training and, inevitably, the odd fire putting out.\n \n \n You will run regular one-to-ones, review performance and KPIs, identify training needs, mentor the team and provide a second pair of eyes on offers and important pieces of work.\n \n \n You will sit within the department’s management structure, contribute to wider decisions around the direction of the team and work alongside senior figures across the broader personal injury operation.\n \n \n For somebody already managing a team, it is a chance to take on a broader leadership position.\n \n \n For somebody around 4–6 years PQE who has perhaps become the unofficial senior person in the room without ever being given the title, it could be an even more interesting move.\n \n \n There is also very much a longer-term progression angle here. They would particularly like to speak with somebody ambitious who sees leadership as the next stage of their career and potentially has Partner aspirations further down the line.\n \n \n Importantly, that progression does not come at the expense of earnings.\n \n \n The bonus structure is a significant part of the overall package and should make this particularly interesting for someone who wants to move into management without feeling like they are financially penalised for doing so.\n \n \n If you are an experienced claimant PI solicitor, probably somewhere around the 4–6 year PQE mark, and the bit of your job you increasingly enjoy is developing other people, solving the difficult cases and helping shape how a department operates, this is worth a conversation.\n \n \n Especially if you want the responsibility, progression and financial upside to move together.\n \n \n Speak to Neil Campbell at QED Legal for a confidential discussion.

Dispute Resolution Solicitor | Broad Civil Litigation | 1–3 PQE\n £40,000–£55,000 | Newcastle upon Tyne\n \n \n Not every 1–3 PQE Dispute Resolution role gives you the chance to get your hands on such a broad range of work.\n \n \n This one does.\n \n \n An established Newcastle firm is looking to add a Dispute Resolution Solicitor at 1–3 PQE, with a caseload that covers considerably more than the usual run of the mill civil litigation.\n \n \n The work includes commercial and residential property disputes, partnership disputes, TOLATA, professional negligence, inheritance and IPFDA claims and contractual disputes.\n \n \n So if you've built a decent grounding in general litigation and want to broaden rather than specialise too early, there's plenty here to get your teeth into.\n \n \n You'll have your own caseload appropriate to your level, whilst working closely with the Managing Director for supervision and support on the more involved matters.\n \n \n That means getting exposure to the full litigation process – advising clients, developing strategy, drafting pleadings and court documents, researching points of law, dealing with opponents and third parties and attending Court where appropriate.\n \n \n They're looking for a qualified Solicitor with 1–3 years' PQE and genuine experience in Dispute Resolution / Civil Litigation.\n \n \n You don't need to be an accomplished advocate already.\n \n \n Advocacy experience would be useful, but the bigger requirement is someone who can demonstrate good technical foundations, strong drafting and a sensible approach to client work – and who wants to keep developing.\n \n \n There's also scope to take on increasing responsibility as your experience grows, rather than simply inheriting somebody else's caseload and being left to get on with it.\n \n \n Newcastle upon Tyne | 1–3 PQE | Competitive salary depending on experience\n \n \n If you're a junior Dispute Resolution Solicitor in Newcastle who wants variety, supervision and the opportunity to develop a genuinely broad litigation practice, this is one I'd be happy to talk through confidentially.\n \n \n For a confidential discussion and to learn more about the firm behind the opportunity, please contact Eoghan at QED Legal Recruitment Ltd.

Solicitor Team Leader | Contested RTA & Personal Injury | Newcastle Salary: Up to £50,000 depending on experience Full Time | Newcastle \n If you're an experienced Personal Injury Solicitor who is ready to take a step into team leadership without moving away from the legal work, this could be an interesting opportunity. \n An established North East legal business is looking to appoint a Solicitor Team Leader within its Contested Litigation / Personal Injury team. \n The role sits somewhere between technical legal oversight and people management. You'll work alongside the Principal Solicitor to ensure the team is performing effectively, while also having responsibility for supervising fee earners and authorising key elements of litigation. \n The underlying work is predominantly RTA-related contested litigation, so you'll need a strong understanding of liability, factual causation and the procedural rules that govern these claims. \n That includes experience with: \n\n • RTA liability and factual causation\n, • Credit Hire and Vehicle Damage claims\n, • Pre-Action Protocols\n, • Part 7 and Part 8 proceedings\n, • Relevant Civil Procedure Rules and Practice Directions\n, • Conducting and progressing contested litigation\n, • Authorising key elements of litigation undertaken by more junior fee earners\n\n Alongside the technical side, you'll be responsible for helping the team deliver against its financial and performance objectives. \n You'll work with individual fee earners to identify development needs, provide support and guidance, and help create a team environment where people are accountable for their performance but also properly supported in achieving it. \n So, this isn't simply a Senior Solicitor role with a slightly different title. \n You'll have genuine responsibility for: \n\n • Day-to-day supervision of team members\n, • Supporting the Principal Solicitor with implementation of litigation strategy\n, • Monitoring individual and team performance\n, • Identifying and addressing development needs\n, • Supporting fee earners in achieving financial and operational targets\n, • Liaising with other solicitors, Team Leaders and senior management\n, • Providing technical oversight and authority on appropriate litigation decisions\n, • Helping develop and motivate the wider team\n\n You'll ideally be a qualified Solicitor with solid RTA / Personal Injury litigation experience, alongside some previous experience of supervising, mentoring or leading people within a commercial environment. \n You’ll need to be comfortable with the commercial side of a high-volume litigation environment and understand that performance, quality and client service all need to work together. \n If you're an RTA / Personal Injury Solicitor who has already taken on responsibility for others — or is ready to make that move — and you're looking for a genuine team leadership position in the North East, I'd be keen to have a confidential conversation. \n For a confidential discussion and to learn more about the business behind the opportunity, please contact Eoghan at QED Legal Recruitment Ltd.
