With offices around the world and over 1,000 employees, its culture and ethos allow for a global brand, with regional empowerment.
You will be working within the Casualty Team, where you will pursue settlement of files in line with client instructions and guidelines.

You can expect to work with a range of high quality clients such as insurers, local authorities, TPA’s and self-insured companies, on a fast & multi track basis. In addition, you will ensure timely and accurate maintenance of all case management, billing and MI systems, to ensure completeness of records and aid business decision making. This is a ‘hands on’ and fast-paced environment, where you will be encouraged to speak with clients via the telephone to progress each file efficiently.
