About this role
Introduction to the Role
Join the LMA’s Marketing and Communications team and help bring the work of the Lloyd’s market to life. In this broad, hands-on role, you will write and deliver communications across email, social media, the LMA website, events and campaigns.
Working closely with the Head of Marketing and Communications, colleagues, members and external agencies, you will gain exposure to senior stakeholders and have opportunities to take ownership of projects as you develop.
With a high level of variety, responsibility and visibility, the role offers an excellent opportunity to build your skills and experience across a wide marketing and communications remit while developing relationships across the Lloyd’s market.
Introduction to the Lloyd's Market Association (LMA)
The Lloyd’s Market Association (LMA) represents the interests of 59 Lloyd’s managing agents and members’ agents.
The purpose of the LMA is to make the market a better place and in so doing, maintain the Lloyd’s market’s position as the pre-eminent leader in specialty and commercial risk. We sit at the centre of the Lloyd’s market, a world-leading global marketplace for complex risk.
We seek to make the market a better place in five fundamental ways. First, we advocate on behalf of our members with key stakeholders, including governments, regulators and the Corporation of Lloyd’s. Second, our work spans technical and professional support, from developing model policy wordings to providing guidance on regulatory and legislative requirements.
Third, our award-winning LMA Academy is one of the leading providers of Lloyd’s technical training in the market, supporting the ongoing development of underwriting, claims, finance, risk and operations professionals. Fourth, we drive forward a digitalisation agenda for the market and fifth, we are strong advocates of advancing the market’s inclusive culture.
Collaboration is at the core of what we do. We engage closely with our members to understand and tackle the issues that matter most, and we partner with Lloyd’s and other market associations to help shape the future of the marketplace.
