At Financial & Legal Insurance, part of the Drive Further Collective, we're looking for an experienced Claims Handler to join our growing team.

If you enjoy managing claims, making fair decisions, working closely with legal partners and delivering outstanding customer outcomes, we'd love to hear from you.

Why join us?

As a GI Claims Handler, you'll manage Legal Expenses Insurance claims from first notification through to settlement, ensuring every decision is fair, compliant and customer-focused. You'll work closely with panel and non-panel solicitors, review policy coverage, manage reserves and monitor claim progression while maintaining the highest standards of regulatory compliance.

Reasons to use Rodeo

I’m in my final year doing Economics and I don’t know whether to apply for grad schemes now or do a masters first. What do you think?

Honest answer — it depends on where you want to end up. A lot of top grad schemes (Big 4, civil service, banking) don’t need a masters. Let’s look at the ones you’d be competitive for now, and we can decide if a masters actually adds anything.

Also worth knowing: most autumn 2026 applications are open now. Timing matters more than you think.

Start with a chat, not a search bar

Grad scheme, placement, apprenticeship? Not sure what you want yet — that's fine. Your agent talks it through with you and turns "I have no idea" into a shortlist.
