Private Practice Solicitor (Marine Insurance) - London - £110,000 - £125,000

I am partnering with an international law firm who are hiring a Senior Associate (5+ PQE) to join its expanding Marine team in London.

The role offers the opportunity to work within a leading global insurance law firm, handling high-value and complex matters for major insurers, P&I clubs, brokers, shipowners, charterers, logistics companies, and other stakeholders in the global marine sector.

The work spans both contentious and advisory areas, including coverage disputes, subrogated recoveries, liability claims, and cross-border matters.

Key responsibilities include managing a varied caseload across marine insurance lines such as hull and machinery, cargo, P&I, and freight liability, as well as advising on complex policy coverage issues.

The role involves acting in High Court litigation, LMAA and other arbitrations, and international disputes.

It also requires strong drafting skills for pleadings, opinions, policy wordings, and settlement agreements, while supporting partners on strategic, high-value cases and maintaining strong client relationships.

The ideal candidate will have 5+ years PQE with a proven track record in marine insurance, coverage work, and London Market matters.

They will bring strong litigation and arbitration experience, excellent analytical and drafting skills, and the ability to manage complex cases with minimal supervision.

A commercial mindset, collaborative approach, and willingness to mentor junior team members and contribute to business development are also essential.

To apply for this role or for more information please call Neil on +44 (0) 2392 314 686 or email neil@navis-consulting.com
