Commercial Property Claims Handler

Manchester

Salary - up to £40K

Hybrid working (3 days office, 2 days working from home)

Our client is an independent broker looking to expand its Manchester office with the addition of an experienced Commercial Property Claims Handler. 

The Role:

• 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, the Commercial Property Claims Handler role 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. 

The Required Skills:

• You will be expected to have a strong technical standing in commercial property claims, from a broker or insurer. 
• You will be confident in communicating with clients, insurers and relevant third parties. 
• As a Commercial Property Claims Handler this is an excellent opportunity to build on your technical knowledge and expertise and help support and mentor less experienced colleagues.

Benefits:

• Up to £40K
• 6% employer pension contribution
• Buy and sell holidays
• Death in service
• Private medical insurance
• Support towards professional qualifications
