You will negotiate and settle claims, ensuring the best possible outcome for the policyholder.

Responsibilities will include, but not be limited to, meeting with policyholders, surveying damaged properties and producing a scope of works for the repairs covered under the insurance, and determining the condition and construction of buildings.
