Singapur, Singapore Aon Full time

About the Role

Aon is seeking a highly experienced Senior Counsel to join our Dispute Resolution team in Asia and Greater China. As a key member of our team, you will be responsible for providing expert advice and risk management support in relation to professional negligence claims against all of Aon's solution lines.

Key Responsibilities

  • Lead the Asia Legal function on dispute resolution matters, providing advice and counsel on a wide variety of dispute resolution or related matters, including professional negligence and commercial disputes.
  • Work in accordance with Aon policies, including participation in the management of risks that may adversely affect the business, interests, or reputation of any Aon group company.
  • Advise on regulatory, legal, and operational issues arising from time to time and maintain an up-to-date knowledge of the law.
  • Appoint and lead all aspects of the quality and fitness-for-purpose of legal advice provided by external lawyers and lead those relationships generally.
  • Provide regular case reports for management and boards.
  • Work on special projects and investigations with the Aon law and compliance team and lead projects to improve team know-how, systems, and processes.
  • Develop internal policies and provide legal and risk management training and advice to the businesses on how to mitigate or avoid E&Os and minimize legal, regulatory, and reputational risks.
  • Build strong and positive relationships with key business leaders and other functions.
  • Provide support to other Aon Law teams as required.
  • Support the strategic direction of the Aon Group and Legal Department on projects and initiatives as allocated.

What Sets This Opportunity Apart

The Disputes Resolution team is in high demand, and this team is often required to become involved in and advise on issues broader than active disputes. We need an experienced lawyer to support the team and oversee E&O and litigation matters in Asia.

Our businesses receive claims or lawsuits that relate to professional negligence issues among others. Your role will be to support all of our business solution lines in relation to the investigation, defence, and settlement of these claims and lawsuits among other types of disputes and investigations.

Requirements

  • Qualification to practise as a lawyer in a common law jurisdiction (whether in Asia or abroad).
  • Highly proficient in practical dispute resolution legal experience, including insurance litigation and professional negligence claims (a minimum of 8+ years practical legal experience; experience in-house and in Asia is beneficial, but not required).
  • Experience balancing corporate risk with commercial awareness and opportunity.
  • Excellent drafting and negotiation skills with an eye for detail.
  • Excellent communication skills and the ability to gain the confidence of seniors and peers in your team and within the businesses you work for.
  • Willingness to learn about new areas of work and a logical and enquiring approach to new challenges.
  • Experience working in (or advising clients who are in) a regulated environment, including insurance, reinsurance, pensions, asset management, and/or investment advisory is beneficial, but not required.
  • Aptitude for providing user-friendly legal advice, know-how, and delivery of business-facing coaching/education.
  • Experience of developing strategic partnerships/collaboration with clients.
  • High level of integrity and professionalism.
