Start (or accelerate) your Serious Injury career - with real support and progression. CRA Consulting is working in partnership with a nationally recognised Personal Injury practice that is actively investing in the growth of its Serious Injury team. This role is ideal for a junior Solicitor, CILEX Lawyer, or experienced PI fee earner who wants to build a long-term career in Serious Injury litigation, working on quality claimant matters, within a structured, supportive environment - and with the flexibility of fully remote working.
TheOpportunity

Crucially, this role is designed as a stepping stone into higher-value Serious Injury work. You’ll receive close supervision, technical guidance, and structured development, with a clear pathway into Grade B and more complex claims as your experience grows.
