Why Join GEICO?

At GEICO, we offer a rewarding career where your ambitions are met with endless possibilities.

Every day we honor our iconic brand by offering quality coverage to millions of customers and being there when they need us most. We thrive on relentless innovation to exceed our customers' expectations while making a real impact on local communities nationwide.

Founded in 1936, GEICO is a member of the Berkshire Hathaway family of companies and one of the largest auto insurers in the United States. When you join our company, we want you to feel valued, supported, and proud to work here. That's why we offer the GEICO Pledge: Great Company, Great Culture, Great Rewards, and Great Careers.

GEICO is seeking an experienced attorney and compliance leader to build and lead our ethical culture program. This role owns our compliance policies, fosters a strong speak-up culture across the organization, and partners closely with Corporate Litigation and Investigations, People Group, Employment Law, and the Corporate Secretary. The Director will build and manage a team, develop metrics to measure the organization's ethical health, and serve as a trusted advisor to senior and executive leadership on matters of ethics and conduct.

What You'll Do

  • Code of Conduct & Ethical Culture: Own and administer GEICO's Code of Business Ethics and Conduct, serve as the organization's primary resource for interpreting the Code, and lead efforts to foster an ethical, speak-up culture — including oversight of the reporting channels associates use for compliance-related concerns and ownership of compliance communications.
  • Investigations & Conflicts of Interest: Partner with Corporate Litigation and Investigations, Corporate Secretary, and the People Group, on the intake, escalation, and resolution of Code-related concerns and investigations, and own the conflicts of interest certification process, including design, administration, and monitoring.
  • Program Measurement & Training: Develop metrics to measure the organization's ethical health, lead future initiatives such as an associate compliance culture survey and a comprehensive compliance program review, and assess training needs — partnering with Learning and Development on content, deployment, and completion requirements.
  • Team Leadership & Cross-Functional Partnership: Build and manage a team, and work closely with the People Group, Employment Law, Corporate Litigation and Investigations and the Corporate Secretary, to align on policy, process, and escalation across departments and outside counsel as needed.
  • Legal & Executive Advisory: Exercise independent legal judgment on significant and unique ethics and conduct issues, interact directly with business leaders and stakeholders at the highest levels, and prepare reporting and communications for senior and executive leadership.

Required Qualifications

  • Juris Doctor (JD) from an accredited law school and admission to practice law in at least one U.S. jurisdiction
  • 10+ years of relevant experience in ethics, compliance, employment law, or a related specialty, including building or scaling a program and managing or partnering closely on investigations with investigations and employee relations functions
  • Experience building and managing a team, including hiring, performance management, and mentoring
  • Strong analytical, problem-solving, and communication skills, with the ability to evaluate intangibles, exercise judgment on significant/unique issues, and explain complex legal and compliance concepts to non-lawyers and senior and executive leadership
  • Proficiency in managing multiple priorities, projects, and stakeholders across departments
  • Must be able to, with or without accommodation, perform the essential functions which include, but are not limited to seeing, hearing, typing, and speaking

Preferred Qualifications

  • Experience in insurance, financial services, or another highly regulated industry
  • Experience designing culture or engagement surveys and translating results into program action, including partnering with training/learning teams on deployment

Core Competencies

  • Code of conduct administration, ethical culture stewardship, and executive-level communication
  • Investigations judgment and conflicts of interest program administration
  • Metrics development, data-informed program management, and training needs assessment
  • Team building, people leadership, and cross-functional partnership
  • People leadership — hiring, developing, and managing performance for a growing team, while modeling the ethical standards and behaviors the role is meant to champion
  • Legal judgment and ability to handle large, complex, ambiguous projects independently

Why Join Us

You'll help build a best-in-class ethics and conduct program from the ground up, shaping how GEICO defines and measures its ethical culture while partnering across Compliance, Legal, and the People Group. This is an opportunity to make a visible, lasting impact on the integrity and culture of the organization.

Why it works

more interviews than doing it yourself with ChatGPT.

ChatGPT writes a CV and never learns what happened to it. We see every reply. For each CV we know:

  • How it was written, and how the review scored it
  • When we applied, and how long after the posting went up
  • Which posting, which company, which city
  • Who got the interview, and who heard nothing

That is how we know which CVs get called.
