Whether it be with the UK Exec’ Leadership Team, Key Brokers & Affinity Partners, or the insured themselves, this newly-created role is a highly-visible one, and your successes will be clear to all. As such, it offers an elevated profile and a far wider range of opportunities for progression in comparison to similarly-titled Claims Account Manager roles.
To say this broker is thriving is something of an understatement, with over 60 offices in more than 20 countries, it is enjoying a sustained period of growth (in excess of 20%) and is on track to achieve its publicly stated ambition to double in size within 5 years. Cash rich and boasting significant profits, it continues to reinvest in its future, both in terms of processes and infrastructure. Similarly, it has invested heavily in hiring some of the brightest minds within the market and, as home to some of the world’s most gifted insurance professionals, is seen very much as an aspirational place to work and partner of choice to many of the world’s best broking houses.
Specifically, the Claims Function has a forged a superb reputation for its high standards, flexibility, proactivity and integrity. It is recognised as an integral part of the insurer’s wider client service offering, and perhaps one the biggest reasons behind the company’s phenomenal growth trajectory in recent years.
Key Responsibilities
* Claims Account Management Team Leadership: Establishing and leading a top-tier Claims Account Management service for the UK claims function.
* Stakeholder Relationship Management: Building, enhancing, and maintaining strong relationships with customers, brokers, and partners. Acting as a trusted point of contact and advocate for claims, externally and internally.

* Monitoring ongoing claims and coordinating reviews: Tracking claims metrics and service levels, often through regular reports or dashboards, to identify developing issues and ensuring high levels of engagement throughout the claim lifecycle. A major part of this role will be organising and leading claims review meetings with the client and brokers, working alongside large client Underwriters and the Business Development Team.
