Job description
Personal Injury Solicitor (NQ–4 PQE) | Brighton & Hove | Hybrid | Catastrophic Injury Exposure

Looking for a Personal Injury role where you can build real experience in serious, high-value cases early in your career?

We’re working with an award-winning, nationally recognised Personal Injury team based in Brighton & Hove, ranked in both Legal 500 and Chambers & Partners, and recently named by The Sunday Times as one of the UK’s leading personal injury firms.

This is an excellent opportunity for a Newly Qualified Solicitor through to 4 years’ PQE to join a high-performing and supportive team, gaining exposure to complex, high-value catastrophic injury work while developing your specialist expertise.

Why consider this role?

✔ Work for a nationally recognised, award-winning PI team
✔ Exposure to catastrophic injury cases early in your career
✔ Hybrid working model
✔ Clear and structured career progression pathway
✔ Work alongside leading specialists in serious injury litigation
✔ Strong training and development programme
✔ Excellent benefits and work-life balance

The Role

You will manage your own caseload of multi-track personal injury matters while supporting senior lawyers on complex and high-value claims, including:

  • Catastrophic brain and spinal injuries
  • Amputation claims
  • Other high-value serious injury matters

You will be actively involved in case progression and will have regular exposure to senior team members, allowing you to develop strong technical expertise in serious injury litigation.

About You

We’re keen to speak with candidates who have:

  • Qualified Solicitor or Legal Executive status (NQ–4 PQE)
  • Previous personal injury experience (essential)
  • Experience with multi-track matters (desirable)
  • Strong communication and client care skills
  • Ability to manage competing priorities in a busy environment
  • A proactive and enthusiastic approach to learning and development

Please note: This role is hybrid; however, candidates should be based in the South East as client visits (including home and hospital visits) will be required.

Training & Development

This is a structured development opportunity within a firm that actively supports long-term career progression, including a clear pathway toward senior roles and partnership. You’ll gain hands-on experience working alongside recognised specialists in catastrophic injury litigation.

Benefits

  • Competitive salary and benefits package
  • Private medical cover
  • Life insurance
  • Enhanced maternity and paternity pay
  • Pension scheme
  • Hybrid working
  • Regular social events
  • Dog-friendly office days
  • Standard 9–5 working hours

If you’re looking to take the next step in your PI career within a highly respected and supportive team, we’d love to hear from you.

For a confidential discussion, please contact Chris Orrell on 0161 914 7357 or send your CV to c.orrell@clayton-legal.co.uk.
