Average Claims Handler salary in Maidstone

A true 'digital disrupter’, this cutting-edge Insurtech is turning the claims landscape on its head; challenging the status quo and the previously accepted norms - and delivering fantastic customer outcomes as a result! This 'Third Party Administrator - with a difference’ is the brain child of several insurance veterans with rich pedigrees in utilising state-of-the-art technology to tackle longstanding problems in the claims industry. Cash rich, it has been backed by a number of specialist VC firms, and has long-term agreements in place with some of the best-known MGA’s on the planet. This is a 100% home-based role, where you will be provided with all the tools needed to make a real success of this role (including a top of the range Apple MacBook with additional screens etc), and benefiting from an extremely friendly and supportive team environment. You’ll efficiently deal with a caseload of Liability claims on behalf of a number of MGAs and insurers. This portfolio will typically comprise Employer’s and Public Liability claims up to a value of £25,000 arising within a range of industry sectors such as hospitality, manufacturing and leisure. There will also be a small amount of 3rd party property damage claims, and other losses such as Products Liability. This is the only Casualty Claims Team in this fast-growing business, and as such, they are very much left to their own devices in terms of the how the team operates, and you will have a meaningful say of the future direction of the Casualty division. Using your extensive experience and knowledge, you will negotiate claims through to final settlement. You’ll have access to the most state-of-the-art technology, as well as full support from a dedicated Claims Support Team. We welcome applications from Liability or Casualty Claims Handlers who have worked for an insurance company, or handled claims via delegated authority at a broker, loss adjuster or in a legal environment. As this role is 100% home-based, you must be highly motivated and able to work under your own steam, with minimal supervision (but lots of support!), and you’ll be well-organised with excellent task-management skills. As you’d expect from a disruptive Insurtech, you should be client service-focused, with a can-do attitude, and pride yourself on your problem-solving skills and innovative approach to delivering excellent client outcomes. As you will be dealing with stakeholders from all walks of life, and dealing with a wide variety of losses, you must have excellent communication and rapport building skills, with the ability to have difficult conversations, whilst demonstrating empathy. The Casualty Manager is quite relaxed about working hours, and whilst most of the team work on a 09.00 -17.00 basis, you can work outside of these hours if you need to be flexible around childcare or other commitments. You will receive a generous basic salary ranging to circa £38,000 (Negotiable, depending on experience), together with a range of company benefits, including support towards professional qualifications. For the ambitious, the sky really is the limit! With more high-profile MGA’s being onboarded all the time, there is clearly going to be a myriad of opportunities for progression in the short, medium and longer term!
