Role: Complaint Liaison Associate
The primary role of the Complaint Liaison Associate is to be the contact point between the Lloyd’s market and Financial Ombudsman Service (FOS) to assist with the resolution of UK policyholder complaints that have already been reviewed by the Market, but the policyholder remains dissatisfied with the outcome and has escalated their complaint for review by FOS. In addition, they have responsibility for the handling of complaints referred to Department of Insurance (DOI) in the US.
The Complaints team has a regulatory operational role that oversees the handling of complaints being referred to the FOS and to the DOI. This role is to ensure effective liaison between Lloyd’s and external bodies such as the Financial Ombudsman Service in the UK and Department of Insurance in the US, as well as quality assessing the handling of complaints by Lloyd’s Governance and Investigation Associates.
This is a problem solving and decision-making role that involves detailed discussions and negotiations with FOS, managing agents and their representatives and Lloyd’s Complaint Investigation Associates to ensure policyholder complaints reach a fair and reasonable outcome and the regulatory requirements of the FCA are met.
The role will assist with the oversight of complaint handling in the UK helping to ensure that appropriate decisions are made by Lloyd’s and the Market as well as the reconciliation and analysis of FOS cases.
The role protects the Lloyd’s Brand by ensuring:
- effective liaison with the Financial Ombudsman Service, including the provision of information, detailed, fact-based negotiations and challenging their decision with and providing supporting evidence where it is felt their decision is inappropriate or fails to consider the facts of the case and regular review of open cases with FOS to ensure that Lloyd’s are aware of all decisions issued and cases are being progressed.
- complaints referred to US Department of Insurance by policyholders are responded to appropriately and within the DOI deadline by managing agents or their representatives, failure to do so can result in actions being taken by the DOI with regard to Lloyd’s licenses.
- high profile or contentious issues are escalated as required as per internal guidelines
