Personal Injury Lawyer

South Manchester

Our client is a well-established and highly regarded high street law firm with a reputation for providing excellent client service within a friendly, supportive, and collaborative working environment. This is a fantastic opportunity for an experienced Personal Injury lawyer to join a growing team that genuinely values its people and offers clear opportunities for long-term career progression and development.

The Role

The successful candidate will manage their own varied caseload, predominantly consisting of non-motor personal injury matters, including:

  • Employers' Liability (EL)
  • Public Liability (PL)
  • Highways Act claims
  • Product Liability claims
  • Other non-motor personal injury matters

Whilst there will be some higher-value Road Traffic Accident (RTA) claims, previous RTA experience is not essential for this position.

Reasons to use Rodeo

I’m in my final year doing Economics and I don’t know whether to apply for grad schemes now or do a masters first. What do you think?

Honest answer — it depends on where you want to end up. A lot of top grad schemes (Big 4, civil service, banking) don’t need a masters. Let’s look at the ones you’d be competitive for now, and we can decide if a masters actually adds anything.

Also worth knowing: most autumn 2026 applications are open now. Timing matters more than you think.

Start with a chat, not a search bar

Grad scheme, placement, apprenticeship? Not sure what you want yet — that's fine. Your agent talks it through with you and turns "I have no idea" into a shortlist.

  • Be a qualified Solicitor, Chartered Legal Executive or experienced Fee Earners.
  • Have a minimum of 3 years' experience managing a predominantly non-motor personal injury caseload.
  • Have a proven track record of working towards and achieving performance targets.
