Pet Claims Handler

Department: Claims Management

Employment Type: Permanent - Full Time

Location: Preston

Reporting To: Aidan Flynn

Description

Davies are looking to recruit a Pet Claims Handler to join our Niche Claims team in our Preston office. The role of Pet Claims Handler would suit someone with a passion for animals, as you'll be assisting with policyholders’ queries and assessing insurance claims for cats and dogs. Previous claims handling experience isn't necessary, although this would be advantageous, as we will provide full training, but you will need to have strong administration and telephone skills, along with great attention to detail.

What will your day look like:

  • Communicating professionally with a variety of people including customers, insurers, and colleagues around the country
  • Composing professional and informative letters and other written correspondence
  • Ensuring compliance with our contractual and regulatory requirements
  • Reviewing data to set up new claims, and updating claims on internal systems
  • Reviewing insurance policy wordings to establish if a claim is covered
  • Follow standard claims procedure to determine the validity of claims
  • Ensure the accuracy of information recorded in the database
  • Provide high quality and professional assistance when dealing with telephone calls and correspondence
  • Adapt to the constantly changing requirements of the department and the company and perform additional tasks as may be required

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.
