Description
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.
