Job Title: Insurance Claims Handler - Motor Warranty

Location: Sheffield, S4

Salary: £16,000 per annum rising to £16,500 on completion of probationary period

Based in Sheffield, the company is a leading provider of quality insurance products for the motor industry (predominantly warranty, mechanical breakdown and GAP). They operate under several quality brands, one of which is the well-known and highly respected AA Warranty.

They are now expanding their team and are recruiting substantially for permanent, full-time posts within their Claims Department. They require career driven, professional, and motivated candidates of the highest quality to fill these challenging and rewarding roles.

The Role:

Being the policyholder's first contact, you will:

  • Treat the customer fairly at all times.
  • Assist them with the completion of their claim, from us receiving the first call through to the claim's final settlement.
  • Gather and record accurately and efficiently all relevant information, whether presented or asked for.
  • Liaise with repairing garages/parts specialists to assist the policyholder in sourcing a quality and timely repair while keeping costs to a minimum.
  • Keep the policyholder fully informed of progress until completion of the claim.

The Candidate:

While motor vehicle experience would be useful, it is not essential; it is essential that all applicants possess:

  • Excellent communication and customer service skills.
  • A professional and courteous manner.
  • Exceed expectations when working under pressure.
  • Excellent time management skills.
  • Enthusiasm and a willingness to learn new skills.
