We act for a range of Local Authorities as well as the Police, Housing and Residential Care providers, Specialist healthcare providers, Schools, Colleges, Universities and household name corporates.

Nice to have:

  • Good commercial awareness
  • Able to work under pressure to meet required deadlines occasionally meaning that work will have to be undertaken outside core hours
  • Experience of working in a target driven commercial environment would be an advantage
  • Whilst previous experience of dealing with Specialist Liability claims would be helpful, it is not essential
