• Technically strong with excellent drafting, analytical and problem-solving skills.

• Organised, detail-oriented and comfortable managing competing priorities.

• A collaborative team player who thrives in a progressive and supportive environment.

• Familiarity with case management systems is advantageous but not essential.

What’s on Offer

• Competitive salary (DOE).

• Profit share entitlement after six months.

• 25 days’ annual leave plus bank holidays, with the ability to carry forward unused days.

• Additional 3 days’ holiday over the Christmas closure period.
