Associate/Junior Associate- Property Damage and Recovery – Edinburgh
Our specialist Scottish Property Damage and Recovery team are looking for an enthusiastic solicitor (0-5 years PQE) to join their expanding team. The successful candidate will be based in our Edinburgh office, with flexible working. Paralegal candidates with relevant experience would also be considered for the role.
The Team
The team handles a varied case load involving pursuing and defending commercial and domestic public liability claims; contractual disputes; fire and escape of water claims and policy liability advice. With a varied caseload involving floods, explosions, fires, falling trees, product liability and escape of water incidents, no two days at work will be the same. The team's Insurance expertise has been recognised in Chambers with a Band 1 ranking. We act for most major insurers, as well as corporate and public sector clients. An increasing client list provides an exciting opportunity to develop your career in this interesting specialism within a supportive and collaborative team.
The Role
This position can offer responsibility for your own case load, including appearance work as well as assisting partners with high value Commercial Court actions and Arbitrations.
We are keen to attract a dynamic solicitor and while relevant experience of this specialism is preferred, it is not essential. We are looking for candidates who have the ability to analyse, evaluate and communicate information logically, together with proficient IT skills. You should be proactive, well-organised and with an eye for detail while delivering commercial solutions to our clients.
Please note that our PQE levels are a guide and all suitable candidates will be considered.
You will benefit from being part of an organisation that is genuinely committed to its people and their well being. You will have access to a range of learning and development opportunities designed to support your ongoing progression.
