This isn't your average litigation role.
This is litigation on a whole different level.
You'll join a genuine legal heavyweight in a market-leading Intellectual Property team, working on complex, high-profile disputes for some of the world's biggest brands.
If you thrive on challenging work, want to learn from some of the best in the business and are looking for a role that will genuinely accelerate your career, this could be exactly what you've been waiting for.
You'll play a key role in supporting fee earners across both Scottish and English jurisdictions, assisting with undefended litigation matters from the outset through to enforcement.
Your work will include issuing Letters Before Action, preparing court papers and productions, raising court actions and progressing cases through the various stages of the court process to secure and enforce money judgments.
You'll be the first point of contact for recipients of Letters Before Action, handling enquiries professionally, taking instructions from clients and negotiating appropriate outcomes, including sustainable payment arrangements where suitable.
No two days will be the same and you'll deal with a wide range of situations, requiring excellent communication skills and a pragmatic approach.
Alongside managing your own workload, you'll ensure the team's shared inbox runs smoothly, keeping on top of court deadlines, client correspondence and enforcement activity to make sure matters progress efficiently and in line with the relevant court procedures.
As cases develop, you'll also coordinate investigations to support recovery strategies, instructing property ownership searches, asset tracing and insolvency checks where required.
You'll oversee tracing reports and enforcement action across both Scottish and English jurisdictions, helping to maximise recoveries while ensuring every case is managed accurately, efficiently and with a high level of client care throughout.
You'll be a self starter, highly organised, deadline driven and must have previous experience of working within debt recovery with a strong understanding of court process.
You'll enjoy a competitive salary, fantastic benefits including medical insurance, generous bonus scheme and flexible/hybrid working.
