Director (Project Manager), Risk & Insurance – M&A & Transaction Solutions, London

An exciting opportunity has arisen for a Director (Project Manager / “PM”) in the Risk & Insurance (“R&I”) team within Aon's M&A and Transactions Solutions (“AMATS”) practice in London.

Our global AMATS practice comprises Insurance, Human Capital, Cyber & Digital, Intellectual Property and ESG experts with a dedicated focus on transactional activity. The R&I team provides insurance advisory services to private equity and infrastructure funds, as well as strategic (corporate) clients, on buy-side and sell-side M&A opportunities and delivers Lender Insurance Advisory (“LIA”) services on project finance transactions.

The primary responsibility of the PM will be to undertake M&A insurance due diligence engagements which provide project management and advisory services to Buyers and Sellers in the pre-acquisition and pre-sale environment. The project work will consist of insurance due diligence, planning for post-closing insurance programmes, new entity cost structures, and reviewing applicable transaction documentation. Additionally, the role will involve the proactive identification of any additional M&A insurance solutions and wider advisory services that Aon may also be able to provide to clients during the transaction and following the completion of a deal.

This is a hybrid role with the flexibility to work both virtually and from our London office.

What the day will look like
  • Undertaking insurance due diligence advisory for private equity, infrastructure, and corporate clients in support of their M&A processes; diligence includes a review of a target’s exposure and insurance-related information provided in the data room, interviews with management, collection and tracking of requested information, gleaning and collation of technical insurance commentary and production of high-quality diligence reports.
  • Driving project management engagement.
  • Liaising with clients and other advisors.
  • Coordinating internal Aon expertise/resources/solutions across various practices and geographies and building an internal network.
  • Determining opportunities for cross-selling other Aon products, services, and solutions.
  • Management of post-close programme placement.
  • Building and fostering client relationships.
Skills and experience that will lead to success
  • ACII (full or part qualified) – Essential
  • Proven general insurance experience, such as Property & casualty insurance experience (broking or underwriting) across core or specialty insurance sectors – Essential
  • Specific M&A transaction and/or project management experience – Essential
  • Private Equity/Corporate M&A or Project Finance transaction experience – Desirable
