Firm Description: Hogan Lovells is one of the leading global law firms. Our distinctive market position is founded on our exceptional breadth of our practice, on deep industry knowledge, and on our 'one team' global approach. Formed through the combination of two top international law firms, Hogan Lovells has over 40 offices in the Americas, Asia-Pacific, Europe, the Middle East and Africa.
With a presence in the world's major financial and commercial markets, we are well placed to provide excellent business-oriented advice to our clients locally and internationally. Our people are the key to our success, which is why we seek to recruit and retain the most talented individuals in all regions of our global practice.
Department Description: The lawyers in the General Counsel team are legal counsel to the firm and provide the same internal service to the firm as the firm does to its external clients. They are involved with all legal matters relating to conflicts, ethics, engagement terms and business intake; compliance with law and legal requirements in all of our jurisdictions, including practising requirements and dealing with regulators; malpractice and negligence matters, lawsuits and claims against the firm; complaints from clients and third parties; general firm policies; risk management and matters affecting the reputation of the firm; and legal issues in the business of the firm such as contracts and agreements.
Role Overview: This is a senior role managing disputes across the EMEA and APAC regions, including professional negligence claims. This key role involves reporting directly to and working closely with the firm's senior management team.
Key Responsibilities / Accountabilities
- Managing the resolution of disputes that affect the firm
- Primary responsibility for handling professional negligence matters, including investigating, defending and working to resolve claims
- Reporting to and liaising with the firm's insurers, including participating in renewal discussions
- Instructing and managing external counsel
- Responsibility for any enforcement steps (including proceedings) needed to collect unpaid fees due to the firm
- Working with the General Counsel and the Director, Risk Management on internal investigations
- Managing any necessary reports and updates about disputes matters to regulators, especially the SRA
- Advising on issues relating to client confidentiality and the management of confidentiality concerns
- Helping to identify and mitigate risk management issues and concerns
Specific duties or responsibilities may be reviewed from time to time to reflect changes in personnel and management structure, staff location or services.
All members of the firm participate in our Responsible Business program.
Person Specification: We have an opening to join the General Counsel team. We are looking for a UK qualified disputes lawyer. This is a senior role and the candidate will have significant disputes experience, ideally 10-15+ years post qualification experience. The role is strategic but the candidate will be expected to be very hands on in getting things done. The candidate should have a strong academic background (minimum 2.1 degree) with excellent written communication and drafting skills. The successful candidate will also have outstanding technical skills, together with the ability to build relationships with clients and colleagues and work well in a team.
Agile Working Statement: Our goal is to embed flexibility across our business by giving everyone the opportunity to work in an agile way, whether as a regular pattern or on an ad hoc basis, and we will be happy to discuss this further.
Equal Opportunities Employment Statement: It is the policy of Hogan Lovells to provide equal opportunities for all employees in relation to recruitment, training and promotion. Decisions in these areas will be made only by reference to the requirements of the job and shall not be influenced by any consideration of age, disability, ethnic origin, gender identity, religion, sex or sexual orientation.
