Description
What if your next role gave you real variety, real responsibility—and the chance to become a genuinely well-rounded litigator from the very start of your career?
In today’s legal market, it’s easy to feel pushed down a narrow path too early. Specialise quickly, stick to one type of work, and risk limiting your long-term development. But what if you could build breadth and depth at the same time?
QED Legal’s client, a leading national firm, is looking to add a talented Solicitor (NQ – 3 years’ PQE) to its growing Insurance team in Glasgow—offering an opportunity that combines high-quality work, early responsibility, and a genuinely supportive environment.
From day one, you’ll be given the opportunity to develop your own caseload, handling a diverse mix of employers’ liability, public liability, disease, motor claims, and elements of fraud work. You’ll gain experience across both pre-litigated and litigated matters, building confidence and technical ability as your responsibility grows. Alongside this, you’ll be involved in more complex, high-value cases, giving you early exposure to work that will continue to stretch and develop your skillset.
What truly sets this role apart is its breadth. Rather than being channelled into a single niche too early, you’ll gain experience across a wide spectrum of insurance litigation, allowing you to build a strong, adaptable foundation for your career. It’s an environment where curiosity is encouraged, development is supported, and no two days feel the same.
You’ll work with a varied client base—from major insurers and insured businesses to public sector organisations—giving you insight into different industries and the commercial realities behind each case. Your role will involve everything from investigating liability and analysing evidence to liaising with clients, opponents, witnesses, and the courts, all while being supported by a team known for its expertise and collaborative approach.
This is a firm that places real emphasis on growth. You’ll be encouraged to learn from experienced colleagues, take part in client development initiatives, and build your professional profile through networking and wider engagement. It’s a culture where people are invested in, where progression is achievable, and where delivering excellent legal work goes hand in hand with maintaining a positive and supportive working environment.
If you’re a Glasgow-based solicitor at the start of your career looking for a role that offers more than just a narrow caseload—one that will challenge you, develop you, and keep you engaged—this could be exactly what you’ve been waiting for.
