This independent insurance organisation is seeking an experienced Commercial Claims Handler to join its existing team in South Yorkshire.
The company was established over 60 years ago and has remained a family business ever since. Building long-standing relationships, it delivers bespoke insurance solutions and invests great time and effort into really understanding the unique make-up and requirements of its clients.
Working within a team of 5, you will be responsible for handling claims on behalf of a number of key commercial clients. The majority of the caseload will be biased towards Motor Fleet, Transit and Employers’ & Public Liability files. You will be responsible for being the main point of contact for your clients, following the claim through to final conclusion by negotiating a satisfactory settlement with all parties. This is a customer focused organisation and therefore the ability to build professional client relationships is of upmost importance.
You will be dealing with clients both over the telephone and via email, therefore it is essential that you have polished communication skills. You will also have a professional and business like attitude, and confidence in your ability to build rapport with clients from a range of industry sectors.
It is imperative that you have a good working knowledge of commercial insurance. Ideally, this will be gained from a broking environment, although our client is willing to consider applications from those currently working for an insurer or loss adjusting firm. We are particularly interested in hearing from candidates who have already made progress towards professional qualifications under the Chartered Insurance Institute, or have a commitment to doing so.
As you will be joining a close-knit, specialist department, it is essential that you are flexible and a hardworking team player, who enjoys working towards shared goals and targets. In return, you will also be rewarded with a competitive salary of up to £25K, along with a company pension, access to limited car parking and funding towards professional qualifications.
