London - Hybrid Working 

A leading UK law firm is seeking a Solicitor or Chartered Legal Executive to join its Specialist Personal Injury team, focusing on complex international travel litigation. This is an excellent opportunity for a claimant‑side litigator who thrives on challenging work, direct client engagement and high‑quality supervision within a collaborative team.

The Opportunity

You'll handle a varied caseload of overseas personal injury matters, acting for clients injured abroad while on holiday, working overseas or travelling internationally. Typical claims include:

-     Accidents on package holidays

-     Foreign road traffic collisions

-     Incidents on cruise ships and aircraft

-     Employer, public and product liability matters with an international dimension

Alongside running your own files, you'll work closely with senior lawyers on high‑value and group litigation matters.

Key Responsibilities

-     Managing your own caseload of international PI claims

-     Taking detailed client instructions and drafting witness statements and schedules of loss

-     Instructing medical experts and reviewing medical evidence (including Part 35 compliant reports)

-     Obtaining and analysing medical records; preparing evidence bundles

-     Advising clients on funding arrangements including CFAs and ATE insurance

-     Instructing counsel and attending conferences

-     Drafting pleadings, court documents and orders

-     A solid working knowledge of the CPR

-     Strong organisational skills and the ability to manage competing deadlines

-     Clear, confident communication skills and a client‑centred approach

-     A proactive mindset and appetite for professional development

PQE is flexible but the role would likely suit some relatively early in their career, between 1 and 5 years PQE but applications are welcomed from candidates with the relevant skills and experience, regardless of formal post‑qualification level.

Why Join?

You'll be part of a forward‑thinking, full‑service firm with a strong national presence and a reputation for tackling complex, high‑impact litigation. The culture is collegiate, supportive and ambitious, with genuine opportunities for progression.

Benefits Include
