About
I am working with the world's largest independent insurance broker, renowned for delivering innovative risk solutions and exceptional client service. Their Transactional Risk team advises private equity sponsors, corporates, lenders, investors and their legal advisers on specialist insurance solutions that facilitate complex transactions across the UK and Europe.
As the team continues to grow, Lockton is looking for commercially minded real estate lawyers who are interested in building a career in transactional risk insurance. This is an excellent opportunity to step away from traditional private practice while remaining closely involved in high-value real estate transactions, working alongside leading investors, law firms and insurers.
The Role
As a Title Broker (Associate) within the Transactional Risk team, you will advise clients on title insurance solutions for complex real estate transactions. Working alongside experienced brokers, you will help assess legal risks, structure insurance placements and manage transactions from initial instruction through to policy placement.
