About DUAL

Driven by a vision to be the world’s best underwriting business, DUAL has always taken a different approach to our industry peers.

Since our business was founded in 2004, we have had a strong entrepreneurial spirit that runs through every part of our business. We empower our people to develop products, services and processes that deliver consistently for our partners. As a company we’re known in the industry as a group dedicated to giving back to the community by partnering with charitable groups and actively participating in fundraising events. Whatever you are looking for in a career, we want to help you do more.

Our philosophy is simple: we genuinely put people first and want our people to be the healthiest and happiest they can be, at work and at home. We aim to attract and retain the best talent, and support them to achieve their aspirations. It’s how we grow our business and keep one step ahead of our competitors.

About the Role

We are looking for a Junior Legal Counsel who will provide support to DUAL’s General Counsel team and support the continuing growth of DUAL Asia Pacific’s compliance hub and business needs. This fast-paced and detailed role sees internal engagement to provide technical product support whilst responding to external compliance requirements.

This role will see responsibility for:

  • Providing high quality, strategic and commercially focused legal and governance advice to DUAL’s business units, including effectively managing external counsel

  • Reviewing and drafting policy wordings, product disclosure statements, target market determinations, policy documentation and other financial services collateral

  • Monitoring legislative/regulatory changes and provision of advice to proactively identify issues which may impact strategy, operational issues or business processes
     

About You

As an experienced problem solver, you possess the skill to communicate intricate concepts to stakeholders across all levels of the business. Having completed legal qualifications and hold a current practising certificate, you’ll ideally have at least two (2) years’ PQE experience and knowledge of insurance products, policy wordings, and coverages.

With strong written and verbal skills, you communicate confidently and enjoy collaborating with others to deliver business requirements and achieve shared success. While experience within an insurance in-house legal team is preferred, we'll consider applications from those with a litigation or claims background.  

Salary and Benefits

At DUAL we value work/life balance, health and wellbeing, family and giving back, which is why our benefits are reflective of this. We provide employees with a competitive salary and benefits, which will be flexible and dependent on the successful candidate’s individual skills and experience.
