Construction Insurance Lawyer Opportunity

We are seeking a talented Construction Insurance Lawyer to join our team at Clayton Legal - Legal Recruitment Specialists. This is an exciting opportunity to work with a highly regarded law firm known for its top-tier ranking in Professional Negligence by Chambers & Partners and Legal 500.

The successful candidate will be involved in a dynamic and growing team that deals with high-value and complex claims across the construction industry. The team represents a diverse client base, including the majority of Professional Indemnity insurers, as well as many of the UK's largest contractors and consultancies.

The role focuses on defending liability claims pre- and post-litigation, as well as advising on associated issues like adjudication, arbitration, and policy coverage for insurers. This position offers the chance to work on a wide range of claims, from tens of thousands to multimillion-pound values, while gaining exposure to business development and client engagement.

Key Responsibilities:
  • Managing a caseload of construction professional indemnity claims, including coverage matters.
  • Delivering high-quality, timely service to clients, aligned with service level agreements.
  • Contributing to the team's development, streamlining processes and supporting constant improvement.
  • Demonstrating the firm's values of client focus, collaboration, and commitment to excellence.
  • Attending and organizing client events as required.
Requirements:
  • NQ+ PQE or equivalent expertise in construction litigation. Insurance experience is desirable but not essential.
  • Ability to deliver practical, commercial legal solutions while building strong client relationships.
  • Commitment to business development, identifying growth opportunities for the practice.
  • Strong organizational and communication skills, with a keen eye for detail.
  • Collaborative approach and willingness to mentor junior team members.
  • Proficiency in Microsoft Office.
  • Adaptability, initiative, and problem-solving abilities.

We are committed to fostering a diverse, equitable, and inclusive workplace where all individuals can thrive. We believe in the importance of flexible working arrangements and support our employees in balancing work and personal commitments. We are dedicated to providing a supportive and collaborative environment, ensuring employees can develop both personally and professionally.

This is an exceptional opportunity for a driven lawyer to grow their career in a top-ranked team within a leading law firm.
