Are you organised, curious, and ready to begin a rewarding career in insurance and housing?
We're currently looking for an Insurance Apprentice to join our team at Platform Housing; a great opportunity for the right candidate looking to take the first step toward a successful, long-term career in insurance and housing.
It's an introduction to insurance and an opportunity to learn about the profession, developing the skills required to progress. You will be given the opportunity to make your mark. You will be encouraged and supported to introduce new innovative ways for the team to deliver effectively and efficiently.
We are looking for someone who is highly motivated and driven. As well as insurance, this role offers opportunities to develop across several areas such as housing, supply chain management, contract management, office administration, customer service, data analysis and finance.
This could be the start of a great career. If you love to learn and are committed to customer service, this role gives every opportunity to develop alongside us.
What You'll Be Doing
As our Insurance Apprentice, you'll be responsible for providing effective administrative support to the team with all aspects of insurance work, and with special focus on accurate processing and storage of claims data and correspondence.
