Due to the continued expansion of the department, we have an exciting new role of a Paralegal that we are recruiting for to support our Medical Negligence team in Newcastle on a full-time basis.
Who are we looking for?
The successful candidate will be supporting our medical negligence solicitors within the overall Medical Negligence & Serious Injury Department, so applications from candidates who can demonstrate knowledge and experience of assisting with medical negligence matters are preferable.
The successful candidate will have a proactive, ‘can-do’ attitude to enable them to work closely with a team of legal fee earners on all aspects of this work. The ability to work as part of a team is therefore essential together with excellent communication, organisational and IT skills.
What do we offer?

Along with this we will provide you with a competitive salary, pension, 30 days holiday and Private Medical Health Insurance; in addition, we will even give you your birthday off every year too!
