Job Description

Legal Advisor

Location: Cardiff

Contract: Full-time, Permanent

Hours: 35 hours per week, 9am – 5pm, Monday – Friday

Start Date: ASAP

Build your legal career in a role where your work has a direct impact: join our specialist Personal Injury and Clinical Negligence team as a Legal Advisor, managing your own caseload while supporting clients through complex and often sensitive matters.

Beyond progressing cases, you will act as a trusted point of contact, offering clients clear guidance throughout the legal process. Alongside knowledgeable colleagues, you will build your technical skills, broaden your understanding and take an active role in achieving positive outcomes. From progressing files and strengthening team efficiency to upholding rigorous standards of client care and compliance, your contribution will be central to the team’s success.

Redkite Solicitors has been trusted to provide exceptional legal advice to individuals, families, and businesses since 1898. As a progressive, full-service law firm, we’re driven by growth and innovation, continuously expanding our reach to meet the diverse needs of our clients. With nearly 300 dedicated professionals, we’re proud to be recognised as an employer of choice, with a number of our lawyers recognised in both Legal 500 and Chambers, reflecting the strength and quality of our expertise. Our ongoing commitment to excellence and expansion ensures Redkite remains at the forefront of the legal sector.

Candidates should be aware that their first day of employment may be based at an alternative Redkite office within our Pembrokeshire to Gloucestershire network, for group onboarding. A willingness to travel and spend the day away from your usual place of work is therefore required.

What will you be doing?

• Step into a junior fee-earning role where you’ll take ownership of your own caseload, growing your independence while helping the team achieve meaningful results for our clients.
• Work hand-in-hand with our Solicitors to keep cases moving, ensuring clients feel supported, informed, and reassured every step of the way.
• Balance precision and empathy as you draft clear legal correspondence, carry out focused research, keep our systems updated, and speak directly with clients to build trust and understanding.
• Be the warm, professional first point of contact for some new enquiries – listening carefully, asking the right questions, and capturing the details that truly matter.
• Gain valuable hands-on experience across the full journey of a case, from requesting medical records and preparing court bundles to taking witness statements when needed.

Requirements

Who We’re Looking For:

• Ideally some experience in Personal Injury work.
• An organised, adaptable professional who can manage changing priorities without losing sight of the details.
• Confident with technology, especially Microsoft Office, and quick to learn new systems.
• Proactive, dependable, and ready to contribute from day one.
• Calm under pressure, able to meet deadlines while maintaining care and accuracy.
• A supportive team player who shares our commitment to delivering outstanding client care with compassion and integrity.

Benefits

What’s In It For You?

We’re committed to creating a supportive, collaborative, and high-performing legal team. You’ll be joining colleagues who are not only legally excellent but also commercially astute and down-to-earth. Our distinctive culture is shaped by loyalty, openness and bold thinking, creating a place where you can thrive and fulfil your potential.

• Collaborative culture – enjoy a friendly working environment, regular team connection days and firmwide social events.
• Health and wellbeing – receive gym membership, eye-care support, enhanced sick, compassionate pay, and access to Mental Health First Aiders.
• Recognition and reward – have your dedication seen through Redkite Rewards.
• Financial security – benefit from a pension scheme and life assurance for added peace of mind.
• Confidential support – access guidance and support through our Employee Assistance Programme.
• Flexible annual leave – benefit from generous leave that increases with service, plus the option to buy or sell days.
• Legal benefits – receive a free Will for you and your partner, free conveyancing for your primary residence and discounted legal services.
• Career development – grow your career and make an impact with the support of a progressive firm.
