Lead Lawyer (Recoveries)

Keoghs LLP is one of the leading insurance law firms in the UK and the most dynamic in its sector. We now have an exciting opportunity for a talented insurance lawyer within the Property Risks & Coverage Team. This role will be based in one of our regional offices in Bolton, Birmingham or Bristol and will specialise in handling a range of high-value subrogated property recovery files, typically in excess of £100K. We can be agile on location.  

You will handle a case of load of Property Risks matter files which will deal with a wide range of perils (fires, floods, impacts, product liability) from a selection of the team’s well known insurers. In addition, this is a role which involves the line management of a mini team so someone with people leadership skills will succeed in this role.  

This is a technical and at times client-facing role for a well-rounded lawyer, so you will have a keen interest in building client relationships through the delivery of training and mentoring as well as in delivering first class legal solutions to complex problems.

The team regularly delivers training seminars and workshops to various insurer clients and the ideal candidate will have an interest and proven track record in client development and show a willingness to assist in the preparation and delivery of seminars on technical legal issues.
