Legal Jobs in Madrid, Spain (Now Hiring) — 285 open — Page 13

Hey!

I am Paula, the recruiter for this role. Lovely to meet you!

Perhaps this is the 10th Job Description you read today, sitting on your couch with Netflix playing in the background, or contemplating your life planning to refresh your career. I am sure by now all offers look the same.

I will be honest with you, at Zurich we do not claim to be perfect, but we are pretty cool! If you want to know why, keep reading!

But first, THANK YOU for showing interest in our company. We know that a job search can be challenging, but don’t worry, what goes around comes around!

Let’s get straight to the point! I will try to sum up our DNA in 2 essential points:

• We love volunteering but we prefer to be Change Activists. What does that mean? We focus our efforts in helping youths in risk of social marginalization and fighting climate change by reforesting parks or woods in Madrid and in the Doñana Forest. In 2024, we did more than 20,000 hours of activism.

• At Zurich we say it loud and clear: We are proud of our colors, we believe that a diverse and inclusive team makes the difference. We don’t discuss disability, we discuss capability! We want you to be yourself, without closets in between or glass ceilings making you fragile. 50% of our high responsibility positions are occupied by women (including our Executive Committee). Do you know that we produce our own podcasts about gender identity? We are building a company were everyone is welcome!

At this point you might be asking yourself: Paula, how will be my day to day wearing the blue sweater?  I asked that question too.

We’re looking for an experienced Cyber & Tech PI Underwriter or Broker to play a key role in shaping the future of our Cyber portfolio. You’ll join our Global Speciality business as a senior member of the Cyber team, with significant authority on complex risks and a clear mandate to drive profitable, sustainable growth. Tech PI Underwriting forms part of the Cyber Vertical at Global Specialty.

You’ll combine deep technical Cyber & Tech PI underwriting expertise with strong business and financial acumen, a winning trading mindset and a clear focus on customer and broker relationships.

• Building, developing and maintaining strong relationships with key brokers and customers, acting as a visible and trusted point of contact for Cyber & Tech PI.

Right now, either you feel as great as when you fit into the right size of your jeans or you are thinking “this is not for me” (and that’s ok, we will meet again in a bright future). However, you can share my contact with those near you who you feel might be a fit to the job.

At Zurich we love to live life to the fullest. I would love to know how we can make you happy, but for me, balance between life and work makes the difference. Flexibility and digital disconnection are real and encouraged.

#PorSerDeZurich, you can choose the benefits that best fit your needs. We all know that “to each their own”.

• We believe you learn by doing, which means we allow movement of our employees in between different departments, both locally and at an international level thanks to the program “Talent in Motion”. And so, you can further your knowledge and growth, we offer English classes, training, and a personal mentoring program.

• At Zurich we think about the future, therefore offer a retirement plan and life insurance and discounts in banking and other insurance products.

If you managed to read up to this point, THANK YOU! We are pretty cool, aren’t we?

If you feel butterflies in your stomach and you think we are a match, send smoke signs… or your CV if you think the smoke thing won’t cut it.

And to top it off, do you want to know what Zurich employees think? I could tell you that we continue at the top of the Top Employers in Spain, but we would love you to hear it from our people by visiting our Glassdoor profile. No blessing in disguise!

I hope to meet you soon!

Paula Moreno.
