Commercial Property Claims Handler

This award winning, independent broker is looking to expand its Manchester office with the addition of 2 experienced Commercial Property Claims Handlers.  With regional offices across the UK, they offer corporate clients a traditional brokerage service, providing the local community with invaluable coverage rooted in family values.

Reporting to the Claims Director, you will manage a portfolio of Commercial property losses, including Material Damage and Business Interruption.  There is no upper limit in value to these losses, so your caseload will be allocated on technically competencies.  Whilst there is no delegated authority, this is by no means a post-box service.  You will present losses to insurers, manage the progress of the lifecycle and negotiate and challenge the settlement terms.  For those losses in excess of £100K or complex in nature, there may be a requirement for you to attend site. 

To be considered, you will be expected to have a strong technical standing in commercial property claims, from a broker, insurer or loss adjusting firm.  You will be confident in communicating with clients, insurers and relevant third parties.  This is an excellent opportunity to build on your technical knowledge and expertise and help support and mentor less experienced colleagues.

In return you will receive a basic salary inline with your experience up to £40,000 along with a comprehensive benefits package, including but not limited to, 6% employer pension contribution, buy/sell holidays, death in service, private medical insurance, along with support towards professional qualifications.  This is a hybrid working opportunity, with 3 days in the Manchester office and 2 days working from home.
