Overview
Solicitor, Legal Counsel Jobs in Greater London, UK at Lloyd’s
Location: Greater London
Overview
Lloyd’s is the world’s leading insurance and reinsurance marketplace, sharing collective intelligence and risk‑sharing expertise to build a braver world.
Our role is to inspire courage so tomorrow’s progress isn’t limited by today’s risks.
Shared values: bravery, teamwork, integrity, and guidance in all we do. If you share our values and passion for a sustainable, resilient, inclusive future, you’ll find a home at Lloyd’s.
We help shape and support the insurance market. We’re looking for a Solicitor to join our Corporate Legal team and play a visible part in that work.
This is your opportunity to work at the heart of a globally respected institution, advising with clarity, influencing with integrity, and helping the business move forward with confidence.
What You’ll Be Doing
You’ll be a trusted legal partner to the organisation, providing clear, practical advice across a broad range of corporate, finance and regulatory matters. You’ll work closely with colleagues across Lloyd’s, helping teams make informed decisions while managing legal risk transparently.
- Deliver high‑quality, business‑focused legal advice across corporate and finance matters, including UK and overseas regulatory issues
- Get involved early in projects and programmes, helping shape outcomes rather than reacting to them
- Identify and manage legal risk, keeping advice pragmatic and aligned to Lloyd’s risk appetite
- Translate complex legal issues into clear, accessible guidance for non‑legal stakeholders
- Build and improve legal templates, tools and guidance to simplify and accelerate workflows
- Manage multiple priorities at pace, without losing sight of what matters most
- Instruct and manage external counsel when specialist support is needed, focusing on quality and value
- Challenge existing processes constructively and help drive continuous improvement across the Legal team
You’ll also contribute to an open, inclusive culture where people feel confident to speak up, ask questions and do the right thing.
What you’ll bring
You’re a qualified solicitor or barrister with a current practising certificate, possessing sound technical expertise, strong judgement and the confidence to work autonomously while staying closely connected to the wider team.
- Experience gained in private practice and/or in‑house, covering corporate, finance and regulatory work
- Strong commercial awareness and a solutions‑focused mindset
- The ability to manage competing deadlines and complex stakeholder relationships
- Clear, confident communication skills, both written and verbal
- The confidence to challenge constructively and deliver difficult messages with clarity and respect
A collaborative approach and curiosity to keep learning
Experience in insurance, the London Market or another regulated financial services environment is a plus, but not essential.
Diversity & Inclusion
Lloyd’s aims to build a diverse, inclusive environment that reflects the global markets we work in, treating everyone with dignity and respect to achieve their full potential.
Benefits & Working Environment
We recognise the importance of work/life balance and offer a hybrid model that allows flexibility between office and home. Other benefits include a generous pension, healthcare, wellbeing programmes, training and development support, a benefits allowance, employee recognition schemes, and discount schemes.
