Claims Executive

Fancy a claims role where nobody's looking over your shoulder?

Our client is an independent insurance broker on a serious growth trajectory - and their Claims team is growing right along with it. They're looking for an experienced Claims Executive to take ownership of an established, loyal client portfolio (predominantly motor, with a healthy mix of liability and property) and run it their way.

This isn't a role where someone hovers over your shoulder. You'll manage your own diary, your own relationships and your own results - with the full backing of a close-knit Claims Exec team, Account Executives and Account Handlers whenever you actually need them.

The portfolio you'll inherit

• Around 45 clients, the majority based in and around Leeds and Manchester, with a handful further afield in Cumbria and North Wales - a genuinely scenic change of scenery on the days you're on the road
• Around 30 of those on a quarterly review cycle, so you're not firefighting claim-by-claim - you're building long-term trust with the same faces, visit after visit
• A genuinely varied caseload - roughly 60% motor, 25% liability/property, 15% other

What the week looks like

• Around two days out visiting clients face-to-face - mostly Leeds and Manchester, with trips out to Cumbria and North Wales worked in
• The rest of the week in the office, building relationships with claims handlers, account executives, account handlers and the wider Claims Exec team
• Real autonomy to manage your book the way you know works

What we're looking for

• Currently working as a Claims Executive for another broker - essential
• Cert CII qualified as a minimum; Dip CII or above a strong advantage
• Comfortable and credible with independent broker clients and the range of covers they carry
• A full UK driving licence, given the travel involved
• The judgement to manage relationships without needing constant sign-off

Why apply

• Salary up to £50,000 plus a £5,000 car allowance
• A business that's genuinely growing, not just saying it is - real scope to grow with it
• Autonomy from day one - no micromanagement, just clear expectations and trust
• A supportive Claims team who'll actually want to know how your quarterly reviews went
