  • Advise insurers on coverage across a range of policies and issues.
  • Act as a point of contact for clients, liaising directly with experts and counsel.

  • Good numeracy and an interest in financial and tax matters.
  • Excellent client handling and relationship skills, able to deal confidently with insured and insurer clients.
  • A reasonable level of self-sufficiency, with awareness of the boundaries of your competence.
  • A client-focused, commercial perspective, combined with strong legal analysis skills and quick learning ability.
  • Positive, flexible, and team-oriented approach.
