• Litigation experience and a sound working knowledge of the Civil Procedure Rules (CPR)
• Experience in the insurance sector is a plus, but not essential
• Strong understanding of legal procedures
• Excellent written and verbal communication skills
• Commercial awareness with a proactive, solutions-focused approach
• Strong attention to detail and effective organisational skills
• Confident using Microsoft Office and case management systems
• A collaborative, inclusive mindset and willingness to be part of a supportive team
