The opportunity

Liberty Mutual is looking for a managing attorney to lead legal support for one of our most strategic and fastest-moving businesses.

You'll lead a small, technically specialized team of lawyers and legal professionals supporting the Small Commercial operation within US Retail Markets — a $26+ billion business unit — and serve as the senior legal partner to the Small Commercial President and their leadership team. Reporting to the Deputy General Counsel, you'll set legal strategy and direct resourcing against the business's strategic priorities.

It's a role for a lawyer who wants both: substantive work on complex and emerging regulatory questions, and a genuine seat at the table where the business makes its decisions.

What you'll do

Advise the Small Commercial business. You'll be the point person for legal matters across the product operation — insurance product design, pricing, underwriting, forms, and distribution. Much of this work involves novel questions in a fast-evolving regulatory landscape, and you'll be expected to bring original thinking rather than precedent alone.

Represent the company in complex matters. You'll advise on substantial legal and business transactions requiring insurance product and regulatory expertise, including matters involving adverse parties and partners. You'll conduct deep research in your areas of specialization and direct and refine the work of others.

Lead and grow the team. You'll manage goals, capacity, performance, and development for your direct reports, building the team's depth in a highly specialized practice and coordinating closely with other Legal managers.

Improve how the team works. You'll strengthen knowledge sharing, documentation, and the team's use of tools and technology so legal support scales with the business.

How you'll lead

You'll succeed here by influencing well beyond your direct authority. That means building relationships across a matrixed organization and leading in a way that makes people want to work with you. It means balancing legal risk with commercial pragmatism, bringing clarity to competing priorities, and removing roadblocks so your business partners can decide with confidence. And it means developing the people around you while staying curious yourself — thinking broadly and seeking outside perspectives rather than defaulting to how things have been done.

What you'll bring

Required

• J.D. or L.L.B. and admission to the bar of at least one U.S. jurisdiction
• 15+ years practicing as an attorney
• Expert knowledge of insurance regulatory law
• Excellent analytical, legal writing, and communication skills
• Proven ability to work effectively with business partners, outside counsel, and adverse parties
• Commitment to the highest standards of legal and business ethics and professional responsibility

Preferred

• People management experience
• CPCU designation
• Small commercial, commercial lines, and/or deep insurance regulatory experience
