Job Details

THE FIRM

A leading international law firm, providing clients with commercially aware legal advice, whenever and wherever they need it.

THE ROLE

Within the Insurance and Construction team which advises insurance entities, and professional firms on a range of professional risk and construction issues globally.

The team's reputation is built on defending professionals in claims, receiving instructions from both insurers and the insured firms themselves, who are recognised leaders in their profession. They also act in relation to pure construction disputes.

The team has a proven track record for handling professional indemnity claims across the range of professions and jurisdictions, and also in the corporate, commercial and financial sectors.

ABOUT YOU

A solicitor at the NQ-3pqe level with excellent academics, you will focus predominantly on defending claims against construction professionals (including architects, engineers, project managers and quantity surveyors) and coverage disputes.

Your caseload will routinely involve mediations and litigation (generally in the Technology and Construction
Court) and you will gain arbitration and adjudication experience.

Day to day, you will have the opportunity to work closely with a senior lawyer who is a specialist in this area. You will also work with other partners and associates across other offices as part of a collegiate and supportive international group.

Successful candidates will have experience in professional indemnity work, in a leading firm for insurance work and ideally in relation to the construction industry but the firm will consider candidates with insurance experience gained in other areas.

Lipson Lloyd Jones Ltd is acting as an Employment Agency in relation to this vacancy. Please note our advertisements use PQE levels purely as a guide to the minimum level of experience required. However we are happy to consider applications from all candidates who are able to demonstrate the skills necessary to fulfill this kind of work.
