Job Details
Senior Legal Counsel – Insurance - 6 month FTC
Our client is one of the largest global life and health reinsurance companies in the world, with operations in 26 countries. It is a market leader in life and health reinsurance solutions.
The UK legal team is headquartered in the City of London and provides full legal support across the jurisdiction, including Northern Ireland. An opportunity has arisen for an insurance lawyer to join the business on a 6-month fixed term contract.
You will be required to provide advice on a wide range of issues including insurance and reinsurance agreements, claims, tech and data protection matters, regulatory questions and general commercial. There will also be a significant focus on the Middle East so any previous experience of that jurisdiction would be advantageous.
You must be admitted to practice law in a leading recognised jurisdiction and have at least 3 years of work experience, ideally in insurance. We are happy to consider either contentious or non-contentious insurance experience. Middle East experience is also preferable and Arabic language skills are highly desirable. You must be able to demonstrate strong negotiation and drafting skills and be willing to pick up new matters. To thrive in this position you must be motivated, well-organised, be able to multi-task and happy to work independently as well as part of a team. The ability to display initiative and take responsibility is also necessary. You will be joining a small, high calibre, friendly and fully supportive team.
Opportunities of this calibre do not come up often and although it is a fixed term contract it provides an excellent opportunity to move in-house experience or deepen existing experience.
For further information please get in touch with Michelle Corneby at Cyan Partners, michelle@cyan.partners.
