HF is a dynamic and rapidly growing firm, having trebled in size over the last five year. Due to significant expansion in Scotland, the Defender Insurance team is looking for several solicitors and paralegals. We have teams based in Glasgow and Edinburgh who work on a hybrid basis and enjoy working flexibly. Where our offices are out of reach, permanent remote positions can be available for more experienced candidates.

Our people pride themselves on making an impact through providing an excellent results and solutions focused service to our clients.

As a firm we are fully committed to nurturing and growing talent, and part of that is recognising the results of an individual’s work and rewarding high performance. The firm values potential and drive. If you are inquisitive, hardworking and passionate about achieving great results, HF is a great place to develop and advance your career!

The roles are available to address a variety of work as our client base continues to broaden significantly, including roles focused on core motor claims, some in our specialist counter-fraud team and some of the roles in our significantly expanding casualty offering.

What do I need?

• Previous experience within at least one of the areas identified.
• The ability to handle a defender case load, complying with duties to the court and delivering on client requirements.
• Advocacy experience is preferred but not essential.

A few words from our Head of Scotland, Steven Smart: “We are a dynamic team with well established relationships with supportive clients keen for us to continue to flourish and deliver the results we have been providing for them. We continue to expand at pace and broaden our client base. The successful candidates will be warmly welcomed and supported from the outset. We value integrity and desire and there is ample opportunity to grow in the roles as we continue to win new work. We empower our team members to work independently and take initiative in handling their work, in an environment with full support.”

We are not your stereotypical corporate law firm. We offer flexible working and have a relaxed dress code so you can be yourself at work. We offer hybrid working and flexible working hours, along with 25 days annual leave (increasing with service) plus full Scottish bank holidays, along with a comprehensive benefits package.

Sounds great! What next?
