The role

A fire breaks out on a ship carrying 8,000 containers, and spreads quickly. Salvage tugs are mobilised and the fire is eventually extinguished. The damaged ship is towed into a nearby port, but the shipowner is faced with huge disruption to their commercial operations and mounting costs. The shipowner appoints an average adjuster to assist with this major casualty.

Average adjusters are all-rounders with an expert knowledge of marine law and the practice of marine insurance, as well as a practical understanding of the global shipping industry. When ships are involved in accidents, they act as impartial intermediaries between the parties concerned and their insurers.

As part of Charles Taylor, RHL benefits from the support of an international network of 76 offices in 29 countries comprising of over 2,000 staff in the UK, Europe, the Americas, the Middle East and Asia Pacific.

• Graduates of any discipline with interest in a career requiring both academic rigour and commercial intelligence.
• Robust, intellectually capable individuals with ability to deal with pressure and absorb ideas quickly. The work requires an analytical approach, accuracy and an ability to work with minimal supervision.
• Successful candidates will be expected to undertake further study and professional examinations. As an international company, there are opportunities to work overseas including secondments within our global offices.

• Training programme
• Full sponsorship for the Association of Average Adjusters examination through to fellowship
