As such, it offers an elevated profile and a far wider range of opportunities for progression in comparison to similarly-titled Claims Account Manager roles. To say this broker is thriving is something of an understatement, with over 60 offices in more than 20 countries, it is enjoying a sustained period of growth (in excess of 20%) and is on track to achieve its publicly stated ambition to double in size within 5 years. Cash rich and boasting significant profits, it continues to reinvest in its future, both in terms of processes and infrastructure. Similarly, it has invested heavily in hiring some of the brightest minds within the market and, as home to some of the world’s most gifted insurance professionals, is seen very much as an aspirational place to work and partner of choice to many of the world’s best broking houses. Specifically, the Claims Function has a forged a superb reputation for its high standards, flexibility, proactivity and integrity. It is recognised as an integral part of the insurer’s wider client service offering, and perhaps one the biggest reasons behind the company’s phenomenal growth trajectory in recent years. Acting as a key advocate for the UK Claims Function (with both internal and external stakeholders), you will be responsible for enhancing and developing relationships with customers, brokers, and partners. Setting this insurer apart from the competition in a crowded market, you will support the Claims Function’s ambition to be recognised as the most client-focused, nimble and value-adding in the country.

Acting as a trusted point of contact and advocate for claims, externally and internally., • Market Facing Proposition: Proactively engaging with customers, brokers, and strategic partners to support the development of the market-facing claims proposition across all product classes., • Claims Advocacy: Representing the claims function across the business, and externally, to promote its value and impact. Championing the role of claims in delivering customer satisfaction and business success., • Point of Contact: Working closely with Distribution Teams and Senior Underwriters, serving as the Claims Team point of contact for large and key client initiatives., • Monitoring ongoing claims and coordinating reviews: Tracking claims metrics and service levels, often through regular reports or dashboards, to identify developing issues and ensuring high levels of engagement throughout the claim lifecycle. A major part of this role will be organising and leading claims review meetings with the client and brokers, working alongside large client Underwriters and the Business Development Team. It is essential that you have previously worked in an Account Management or Business Development Manager role within a claims environment, and that you have strong commercial awareness and knowledge of the UK claims landscape. Whilst we are flexible, ideally you will come from an insurer background. This should include knowledge of claims processes, performance metrics and service delivery. You’ll be skilled in stakeholder engagement and advocacy (both internally and externally) and have a strong track record of building and nurturing relationships with customers, brokers, and partners. You will also have excellent communication and interpersonal skills, with the ability to influence at all levels, and you’ll be an effective team player, demonstrating a positive ‘can do’ attitude and co-operative interaction with team members. In return, you will receive an impressive basic salary, flexible benefits, generous pension arrangement and a 20% bonus.

Commercial Litigation Solicitor | 5+ PQE | Fully Remote A rare opportunity for an experienced commercial litigator to join an alternative disputes practice, operating outside the traditional law-firm model. This role offers high-level contentious work, exceptional flexibility and a sustainable approach to practice, without billing targets, client origination pressure or City-firm hours. What You’ll Be Doing You will play a senior role within a specialist litigation team acting as outsourced in-house counsel to clients operating at scale, with work spanning advisory, strategic and heavily contentious matters. • Handling a wide range of commercial litigation, from lower-value disputes through to complex, multi-million-pound High Court claims, • Advising retained clients on live disputes, risk management and litigation strategy as issues arise, • Working closely with barristers and senior colleagues in a barrister-led model, with early exposure to strategy, advocacy and tactical decision-making, • Managing matters end-to-end, including pleadings, applications, ADR and trial preparation, • Acting as a trusted adviser to clients with ongoing relationships, rather than one-off instructions, • Supporting junior lawyers within the team and contributing to the overall strength of the commercial litigation function About You This role will suit a commercially minded litigator who enjoys disputes work but is looking for a more flexible, sustainable way of practising. • 5+ years’ PQE with strong experience in commercial litigation, • Comfortable handling complex disputes and advising clients directly, • Background from a regional, national or City firm welcomed, • No sector background required; curiosity and commercial judgement matter more than prior specialism, • Confident working autonomously within a collaborative team structure, • Someone seeking long-term balance without stepping away from high-quality litigation What’s on Offer This is a role designed to remove many of the pressure points associated with traditional private practice. • Six-figure salary available, flexible depending on experience, • No billable hour targets and no client origination requirements, • Work allocated via retained clients rather than fee-chasing, • Fully remote working available, with the option of being South West based or hybrid working if preferred, • Full-time role preferred, but a four-day week will be considered for exceptional candidates, • Exposure to meaningful, heavyweight litigation without City hours or commute The Firm You will be joining a specialist litigation practice operating under a hybrid barrister-solicitor model, acting as long-term legal partner to clients across a single, highly active sector. The firm works on a retained basis rather than traditional hourly billing, allowing lawyers to focus on quality advice, strategy and outcomes rather than time recording. The team is deliberately lean, highly experienced and has operated a remote-first model for many years, long before flexible working became mainstream. The result is a practice that combines serious disputes work with genuine autonomy, trust and work-life balance. Apply now or contact Harrison for a confidential discussion.
