Insurance Disputes Senior Associate - top 10 global law firm
I am currently working with a top 10 global law firm looking to recruit a Senior Associate into their expanding contentious insurance team.
The role has a particular focus on Warranty & Indemnity and other forms of Transactional Liability insurance. While there will be some opportunity for exposure to a more diverse range of product lines and global market issues (such as sanctions), predominantly, this role will be focused on advising insurers on the response of (mainly buyer-side) Warranty & Indemnity policies; other Transactional Liability insurance products such as Tax Indemnity policies; with likely exposure also to Contingent Risk and Judgment Protection insurance policies.
Reasons to use Rodeo
I’m in my final year doing Economics and I don’t know whether to apply for grad schemes now or do a masters first. What do you think?
Honest answer — it depends on where you want to end up. A lot of top grad schemes (Big 4, civil service, banking) don’t need a masters. Let’s look at the ones you’d be competitive for now, and we can decide if a masters actually adds anything.
Also worth knowing: most autumn 2026 applications are open now. Timing matters more than you think.
Start with a chat, not a search bar
Grad scheme, placement, apprenticeship? Not sure what you want yet — that's fine. Your agent talks it through with you and turns "I have no idea" into a shortlist.
