Job Details

We are working on a unique opportunity for a Personal Injury Solicitor to join one of the North East's largest and most successful claimant Personal Injury teams specialising in neurotrauma.

Our client is a full service firm based in Newcastle. They work with businesses, organisations and individuals both regionally and nationally and are known for providing an exceptional service.

As part of the claimant Personal Injury department, this role will be joining the neurotrauma team working on serious neurological injury matters, in particular brain and spinal cord injury which could be incredibly complex and very high value.

You will be responsible for running your own caseload of injury matters including pre-litigation and litigated neurotrauma injury claims, liability investigations, review of medical, therapy, employment and case management documentation, attaining evidence from medical experts and drafting schedules of loss. Your focus will be to achieve the best possible outcome for the client and provide outstanding client care.

To be considered for the role, it is essential that you have experience handling a high-value, complex personal injury caseload, experience of brain or spinal cord injury claims would be an advantage but is not essential. You should also have thorough knowledge of the CPR and be conversant with medical issues related to serious injury claims.

The successful candidate will be flexible, enthusiastic, a team player and dedicated to providing the best service possible to their clients. You may also be required to work unsocial hours and travel away from home from time to time.

The firm envisages the successful Personal Injury Solicitor to have 2-8 years' experience, however our client is happy to consider the applications or candidates who fall outside if this level but who have the relevant knowledge/experience, together with the enthusiasm for this particular role.

This is a really great opportunity for a Personal Injury Solicitor to continue developing their career within this specialism.

How to Apply:
Having been established for over 20 years, we are experts in legal recruitment. Our strength derives from the fact that we are well-known, well-respected and have developed long-standing bonds with both our clients and candidates, and have become an authority on all aspects of legal recruitment. To hear more, please contact Gavin Draper or another member of the private practice team at Sacco Mann.

Company

Sacco Mann are specialist Legal Recruiters recognised as regional experts with a genuine interest in, as well as knowledge of, their marketplace. We are renowned for giving clear and straightforward career advice and true quality of service.

We have thirteen experienced consultants focussing on legal recruitment, encompassing the Commercial, General Practice, Public Sector and In House positions, both permanent and locum. In addition two consultants specialise within the Patents and Trademarks sector.

We feel that much of our success has been due to the fact that we:

- try to accurately guage and understand what both candidates and clients require and indeed that which they are able to offer and then bring the two together
- have a demonstrable knowledge of the marketplace. Fundamentally what you need is not merely someone who can post your CV to a practice, but someone whose strength of contacts within the firms can add value, ensuring that you are given proper consideration
- discuss each role with you thoroughly and get prior clearance before a CV is submitted. This is an extremely important for protecting confidentiality and avoiding duplication
- brief you fully prior to any interviews, ensuring that you know what the role entails and how the interview will be run. We also give you honest interview feedback - if you don't do very well in an interview you can always learn from the experience
- are accessible and return your calls

Why use Sacco Mann?

Principally because we believe that the points outlined above are fundamental. We enjoy recruitment, and we are good at it, because we genuinely enjoy assisting people make positive career moves. We don't shuffle paper because we know our marketplace and are therefore in a position to give reliable, knowledgeable and practical advice.

The vast majority of our applicants and clients are at pains to thank us for the advice and service that we provide and we believe the high level of referral business is a direct result of the fact that lawyers value our input.
