Insurance Lawyer in London

A leading international law firm is looking for an Associate with at least 4 years' PQE to join its top-ranked Insurance & Reinsurance team in London.
This is not a standard construction insurance role. Most construction insurance work in the London market is third-party: defending contractors and consultants under their liability policies. You will act for insurers and reinsurers on coverage under the policies that protect the project and the asset itself, principally construction and erection all risks (CAR/EAR), delay in start-up (DSU), property damage and business interruption, and energy and renewables cover.
They include tunnelling and major infrastructure projects, offshore energy installations, windfarms, and large fire and explosion losses. Disputes are resolved through litigation, arbitration, mediation and adjudication, and there is also non-contentious policy wording and contract advice.
The team is busy and growing, and Associates are encouraged to develop their own relationships and profile in the insurance market.
Experience of construction all risks (CAR) coverage work as a minimum;
Ideally, experience of property damage, energy or renewables claims, or large loss work more generally;
Wider contentious experience, including litigation and arbitration; Strong drafting skills and the ability to turn complex coverage issues into clear, commercial advice.
This would suit an insurance Lawyer who wants a genuinely specialist first-party practice, or a large loss or property damage Lawyer looking for more coverage work and international exposure.
