Personal Injury Associate / Team Leader - Manchester (Hybrid)

Salary: £45,000-£50,000 + Bonus + Benefits

Location: Manchester (Hybrid - 2 days in office, including 2 Wednesdays/month)

Are you a seasoned Personal Injury Solicitor ready to take the next step into leadership? I'm working with a modern, values-driven law firm in Manchester to find a talented Personal Injury Associate/Team Leader who's passionate about both technical excellence and team development.

About the Firm:

This is a forward-thinking, people-first firm with a strong reputation for client care and a collaborative culture. They're growing fast and looking for someone who wants to grow with them.

The Role:

This is a fantastic opportunity for a confident litigator with a solid background in EL/PL, Occupiers' Liability, and RTA work across Portal, Intermediate, and Multi-Track levels. You'll manage a high-quality caseload (approx. 110-130 files) while also playing a key role in mentoring and supporting a small but growing team.

You'll have the chance to shape processes, contribute to team strategy, and be part of a firm that values your voice.

✅ What They're Looking For:

  • 6-12 years' PQE as a qualified solicitor
  • Strong experience in Multi-Track and Intermediate Track PI claims
  • Confident handling a mixed caseload of EL/PL/OL/RTA matters
  • A natural leader-supportive, commercially aware, and approachable
  • Someone who thrives in a collaborative, values-led environment

What's on Offer:

  • £45,000-£50,000 base salary (DOE)
  • Performance-based bonus scheme
  • Reduced personal caseload to allow time for team development
  • Car parking space
  • Flexible hybrid working (2 days in office, including 2 Wednesdays/month)
  • On-site gym access
  • Clear progression into senior leadership roles
  • Ongoing training and leadership development
  • A genuinely supportive and inclusive culture

 

If you're ready to make a real impact-both as a lawyer and a leader-this is a rare opportunity to join a firm that truly puts its people first.
