The team has a diverse range of backgrounds including investment bankers, Big 4, lawyers, actuaries, plus technical specialists including insurance.

Our Transactions Solutions (TS) capabilities deliver structured risk transfer instruments covering Warranty & Indemnity insurance and a range of risk transfer solutions for tax, litigation plus other contingent risks. Finally, we arrange credit/bonding solutions to enable clients to optimise their capital structure.

**Aon is in the business of better decisions**

As an organization, we are united through trust as one inclusive, diverse team, and we are passionate about helping our colleagues and clients succeed.

**What the day will look like**
- Driving placement efficiencies and strategic insurer engagements through managing the delivery of high-quality client service and deliverables
- Executing on and refining a comprehensive broking strategy across the UK & EMEA and implementing it through the Aon internal network in each country
- Managing trusted insurer relationships across a range of key target regions and products
- Building a strong internal network to unlock client opportunities and facilitate the delivery of exceptional client service
- Working with the regional AMATS CEOs, Financial Lines leads, Chief Broking Officers and Regional AMATS Champions, to proactively identify and target large PE and Infrastructure opportunities to maximise our commercial position
- Broadening and deepening the Financial Lines sector knowledge across the AMATS team
- Working with Aon colleagues, drive the development of new innovative solutions including developing valuable and timely content applicable to both clients and the broader AMATS team
- The growth of AMATS Globally will create opportunities for career progression with the potential to move into leaderships roles, take on greater responsibility, own and drive initiatives either within financial lines or the wider team. More broadly as a global organisation Aon offers significant career opportunities for its high performing talent both domestically and internationally.

**How this opportunity is different**

We have dedicated coverage teams across Financial Sponsors (PE and Infrastructure), Corporates plus Professional Advisors (Investment Banks, Lawyers, Big 4). We support clients across a wide range of transactions including typical buy and sell-side deals, carve-outs, public market transactions (IPO and P2P), distressed M&A plus secondary market deals. Our mix of deals include both UK domestic and international transactions covering the full valuation range from the largest, most complex multi-billion deals to sub-£50m transactions. We also support our financial sponsor clients with portfolio enhancement and optimisation.

Continuing to build on the success of our M&A Financial Lines proposition is a core element of the overall AMATS growth strategy. The team is looking to continue its rapid growth by recruiting a Financial Lines specialist with experience of Private Equity and/or Infrastructure Funds.

The team’s ambition is across two core strategies. Firstly, to be the leading provider of general partnership liability solutions to our clients by developing a compelling value proposition that excels across complex product design, day to day service delivery and ultimately claims handling. Secondly, we aim to build on Aon’s existing portfolio company product solution and drive the AMATS distribution opportunity within Aon. All this while continually finding new and creative ways to meet our clients’ needs irrespective or complexity or geography, aligning with our broader AMATS transaction solutions teams and advisory capabilities.

**Skills and experience that will lead to success**
- Financial lines insurance broking experience preferably with insurer and client relationship management responsibilities within their role.
- Directors and Officers insurance experience beneficial.
- Significant financial analysis and commercial contract (or insurance policy) negotiation and drafting
- Some project management responsibility within their current or previous roles.
- Track record of working across
