Senior Associate – Insurance Litigation & Regulatory

London | Competitive Salary + Benefits

A leading UK law firm is seeking a Senior Associate to join its specialist London insurance practice.

The opportunity sits within a team handling a diverse mix of contentious insurance, liability and regulatory work. The successful candidate will gain exposure to matters that go well beyond a traditional claims role, working with insurer and corporate clients on disputes and investigations where the legal issues can be complex and the commercial or reputational stakes significant.

What will you be doing?

You will have responsibility for your own portfolio of liability claims while also working alongside senior lawyers on more complex matters. The scope of work is broad and may include:

  • Defending employers’ and public liability claims
  • Personal injury and property damage disputes at both pre-action and litigation stage
  • Supporting clients facing health and safety investigations
  • Regulatory and enforcement proceedings involving businesses and individuals
  • Police, CQC and other external investigations
  • Coroners’ inquests
  • Insurance coverage and indemnity issues
  • Incident response and wider crisis management

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.
