Senior Associate – Professional Risks
Manchester | Hybrid working

Shape the future of a growing Professional Risks practice

Markel Law is continuing to invest in its Professional Risks team, and we’re looking for an accomplished Senior Associate to join us in Manchester as part of a planned and exciting expansion.

This is a rare opportunity to take on high quality, technically challenging insurance work, play a visible role in the development of a ranked team, and gain exposure to London Market instructions — all while benefiting from the culture, flexibility and balance of a growing national firm.

Why this role?

You’ll join a Legal 500 Tier 2 Professional Risks team working closely with Markel UK and Markel International, handling a broad range of professional indemnity, liability and coverage matters.

The role offers:

Autonomy and influence — genuine input into the growth and direction of the team
London Market exposure, without the expectation of London working patterns
A varied, high‑quality caseload spanning small claims to multi‑million‑pound disputes
Clear scope to mentor junior lawyers and contribute to wider business development

If you’re looking to step into a senior position where your expertise is valued and your voice is heard, this is an opportunity to do exactly that.

The work you’ll be doing:

As a Senior Associate in the Professional Risks team, you’ll:

Handle a diverse caseload of insured and uninsured contentious and non‑contentious matters
Advise on professional indemnity, public liability, property damage, D&O and cyber risks
Work on complex coverage issues and disputes, primarily from a defendant’s perspective
Act as the day‑to‑day lead on cases, setting strategy, reserves and delivery plans
Supervise and support junior lawyers and administrators, helping them develop their careers
Play an active role in business development, internal referrals and relationship building
Support the team’s growth, with a particular focus on London Market work

Who we’re looking for:

You’ll be an experienced insurance or professional risks lawyer who enjoys combining strong technical work with collaboration and commercial thinking.

You will ideally have:

Experience handling professional indemnity and/or liability insurance claims (defendant‑side)
Exposure to policy coverage advice and disputes
A background in insurance‑focused or defendant litigation teams (London Market experience is advantageous but not essential)
Confidence managing your own caseload across a wide range of values and complexities
Strong communication skills and a client‑focused approach
An interest in business development and team growth
The capability and enthusiasm to support and supervise junior colleagues

Why Markel Law?

Markel Law is an independent, SRA‑regulated legal business, part of Markel Corporation — a Fortune 500 company with over 60 offices worldwide.

What sets us apart is our people‑first culture. We believe great legal work happens when people feel supported, trusted and empowered.

What’s in it for you:

Competitive salary plus annual bonus
25 days’ holiday plus bank holidays (with buy/sell options)
Excellent pension, private medical and dental cover
Life assurance, income protection and travel insurance
A clear platform for career progression and professional development
The chance to help shape a growing, high‑profile practice

Interested?

If you’re an Associate or Senior Associate in professional risks or insurance disputes looking for a role where you can make a genuine impact, we’d love to hear from you.
