We welcome applications from all candidates, no matter their background.  So, what are you waiting for?  Apply today, we’re looking forward to your application.

Position Summary

Our Adjuster Assistants are an integral part of our Major and Complex Loss teams. When you join, you’ll be working in partnership with M&CL Adjusters in the field, supporting them with their claims portfolio in coordinating appointments, claims instructions, information for reports and enquiries.

 

We also offer personal development with full exam and study support, promotional opportunities and a fully inclusive culture. In return for your commitment, we’ll provide you with the knowhow and support so you’ll become a subject matter expert, providing a first class service to our customers.

Key Responsibilities

You’ll be the first contact with claimants and brokers/agents to discuss the claim as required, often of high value and a complex nature, managing instructions with your exceptional interpersonal skills and creating good client relationships built around trust, respect and speedy resolution of assignments.

 

A large part of the role will be coordinating appointments and diary management alongside coordinating instructions for emergency work as required, such as instructions to contractors.  You’ll also provide support with task lists, letters, reports and any technical queries and have the opportunity to be involved with projects and oversee caseloads in Adjusters absence.

 

Some claimants may require alternative accommodation, so you’ll ensure the reduction of claims lifecycles to reduce costs by proactive management and challenge building scopes and variations when required.

Behaviours

We’re looking for talent: experienced claims handlers or those from a similar background who relish challenges and provide solutions. Additionally, we’d like you to have:

  • Ideally experience of handling commercial property claims or similar, although we’d welcome applications from those within a brokerage or similar
