Job overview:
We have exciting, permanent opportunities for Claims Handlers in Birmingham. As part of a busy team, you’ll manage claims, review reports for payment, and make decisions. This role doesn’t involve taking inbound customer telephone calls, but you will make some outbound telephone calls. You don’t need previous experience in insurance. We’ll train you on our systems and processes.
Key responsibilities:
- Manage a caseload of claims, review reports, and make informed decisions.
- Update systems accurately with the latest information.
- Communicate decisions to relevant parties, ensuring transparency and understanding.
- Prioritise tasks to effectively manage your caseload.
- Identify potential fraud and refer suspicious claims for investigation.
- Ensure fair treatment of customers.
Work arrangements:
At AXA we work smart, empowering our people to balance their time between home and the office in a way that works best for them, their team, and our customers. You'll work at least two days a week (40%) away from home, moving to three days a week (60%) in the future. Away from home means attending the office, visiting clients, or attending industry events. We’re also happy to consider flexible working arrangements, which you can discuss with Talent Acquisition.
