- Clear and persuasive communication skills, both written and verbal, with the ability to tailor messaging to different audiences.
- Strong organisational skills and the ability to manage multiple deadlines in a fast-paced environment.
- Solid legal research capabilities and a methodical approach to problem-solving.
- A keen eye for detail and a commitment to delivering high-quality, accurate work.
- Experience managing a portfolio of lower to mid-value claims, with the flexibility to support senior colleagues on more complex, high-stakes matters.
