Lockton’s Transaction Liability Practice (“Lockton TL”) Lockton TL is a best-in-class insurance brokerage team that acts as a liaison between carrier partners (i.e. companies that sell TL insurance policies) and clients (i.e. companies or private equity firms that need TL insurance policies in connection with a mergers and acquisitions).

The internship program will give candidates a thorough induction to our business and culture.

  • Eager to learn with a growth mindset – hardly anyone comes out of college knowing about TL insurance, so we’ll teach you about these niche insurance products and the broader M&A market if you’re eager to learn and grow.

  • Collaborative and team-oriented – our ability to work collaboratively on deals is critical in offering timely and best-in-class service to our clients.

  • Able to think creatively and demonstrate problem-solving skills – challenges inevitably arise in the M&A world. Doing the best we can for our clients requires resourcefulness, innovation, and determination.
