This role involves significant, independent interaction with senior management and business leaders, both locally in Latin America and globally across Everest. The role is focused on oversight of regional legal work, representing wider group interests in Latin America and engaging with local regulators on strategic matters. The individual will manage and work closely with the Associate General Counsels—Heads of Legal for Chile, Colombia, and Mexico, based, respectively, in Santiago, Bogotá, and Mexico City.

- Office Setup Assistance: Assist with all legal and regulatory aspects of setting up new office locations in Latin America, coordinating such activities with the Company’s corporate headquarters, and generally supporting Everest’s expansion initiatives in the region.
- Governance: Oversee the effective provision of corporate secretarial services and related governance functions for Everest’s Latin America operations.
- Contract Management: Work with the local Heads of Legal to provide direction and strategic input on the drafting, review, and negotiation of agreements with producers, insureds, and third parties.
- Transactional Matters: Manage miscellaneous regional corporate transactional matters, including entity formation, due diligence, securities, and financial matters.
- Dispute Management: Provide strategic oversight and direction on the resolution of non-claims disputes impacting Everest’s Latin America operations.
- Support Underwriting Teams: Work with Latin America underwriting teams and product development to support new transactions and product lines.
- Miscellaneous: Handle other corporate and contractual matters as needed where regional approaches and perspectives are required.
- Legal Counsel: Stay up to date on legal, compliance, and regulatory issues impacting Everest’s business in Latin America.
- Operational Leadership: Provide leadership to local operational areas supporting the Latin America underwriting business (i.e., Claims, IT, Finance, Contract Wording) and contribute to wider projects involving Latin America operations in partnership with local Heads of Legal.
- Strategic Advice: Provide strategic business and legal advice regarding potential strategic acquisitions, M&A, new ventures, and territory expansions affecting the Latin America business.
- People Leadership: Lead and manage a team of 4 direct and indirect reports.
- Board Membership: Serve as a member of the Board of Directors on each Latin American subsidiary of the corporate group, at the direction and pleasure of the shareholders of each subsidiary.
