You will play an active role in the continued growth and success of the team. The team provides coverage advice to global insurers in the D&O and FI arena. This includes advising under D&O, FI, crime, BBB and management liability policies.
Most of the work involves advising insurers and reinsurers on complex policy coverage issues. As such, the role requires a detailed understanding of the operation of D&O and FI policies, as well as an in depth knowledge of the commercial drivers of insurance clients.
The role often involves dealing with cases in international jurisdictions and as such you will be expected to work closely with experts in our overseas offices, as well as with specialists in other fields, including corporate, employment and white collar crime.
