Clinical Negligence Solicitor

Come Make a Real Difference as a Clinical Negligence Solicitor (2-5 PQE, Reading, Hybrid)

Salary: Up to £65,000 · Office: Reading (2 days/week) · Working Style: Flexible hybrid

Why This Opportunity Could Be Your Next Best Move

Looking to step into a role that's more than just "work"? Here, you'll join a top-tier, entrepreneurial Clinical Negligence team, ranked consistently by Chambers and Legal 500 for its life-changing, high-value claimant work, especially in cerebral palsy, birth injury, and cauda equina cases.

You'll be more than a solicitor, you'll be a collaborator. Work closely with senior partners on complex claims, manage your own caseload (often valued at £50K+) and feel the support of a well-resourced, friendly team that genuinely values your contribution.

Who You Are

2-5 years PQE with solid experience in clinical negligence (candidates with more experience are also welcomed to apply).
Comfortable running your own cases and collaborating on sophisticated matters.
Proactive, methodical, and commercially aware, with interest in business development and quantum work a plus.
A confident communicator - both written and verbal.

Perks That Really Stand Out

Beyond competitive salary, you'll enjoy a well-thought-out benefits package that's rare to find:

Generous 25 days' holiday, plus the option to buy extra time off and enjoy an additional day on your birthday.
Pension: employer matches up to 4%, with optional salary-sacrifice.
Life Assurance: 5× your salary.
Private medical cover, including a cash-back medical plan for physio, dental, optical, virtual GP access and more.
Wellbeing hour every week to recharge.
Charity time: 8 hours per year to support causes you care about
Season ticket travel loan and cycle-to-work scheme.
Bring your dog to work (if yours is friendly and well-behaved)
Regular social events and access to a retail discount scheme

This is far from a faceless environment. You'll be in a team that's inclusive, supportive, and collaborative, where diverse ideas and perspectives are genuinely valued.

You'll be trusted to work autonomously, encouraged to share your insights and treated as a key contributor from day one.
