  • Maximize client coverage outcomes by conducting a detailed and inclusive analysis of all client coverages, dual insurance, other insurance, case law, and external covers which would apply to the loss, providing comprehensive strategic guidance.
  • Assist and mentor internal financial lines claims operations staff to examine legal/coverage complexities, indemnity denials, reservation of rights, and operation of exclusions.
  • Provide tailored guidance on providing information and updates to insurers, including drafting detailed correspondence and submissions.
  • Attend site inspections, mediations, and on-site meetings where appropriate, conduct expert conclaves, review quantum and causation evidence, and provide detailed submissions in relation to causation and cover.
  • Provide guidance on information requests from insurers, including advising on alternative pathways and likely trajectory/impact of alternative options.
  • Conduct escalation meetings with domestic and overseas participant carrier markets, coverage counsel, and defense counsel.
Requirements
  • Legal degree (5+ years PQE desirable), experience working in private practice.
  • Technical specialist able to provide detailed guidance, advice, and management to advanced complexity and major loss financial lines insurance claims.
  • Able to autonomously manage a range of large complex matters, retaining quality and quantity and customer service.
