Job Description

Posted 1 year ago

We're searching across Australia to find our missing piece - a superstar Insurance Claims Officer. Hybrid and Work From Home options available.

The truest test of our value to our clients as their trusted insurance adviser is when they suffer a loss.

We know that the claims process can be difficult and stressful, so we’re committed to standing with them every step of the way and providing personal claims advocacy from start to finish. In order for our clients to receive the outcomes and benefits that they’re entitled to, we need a talented team of customer-service focused broking and claims professionals in their corner.

As the Claims Officer you will be responsible for overseeing and actioning claims, helping develop and coordinate our internal claims admin team, redefine our claims process and most importantly, provide excellent customer service to our clients going through a stressful period.

This role would suit an individual with previous experience as a claims handler or loss adjuster who has a sound understanding of commercial insurance claims.

Ideally, our Claims Officer would be based in Canberra, Melbourne or Sydney, however we are happy to provide remote/work from home solutions anywhere in Australia if you are the right fit for the team.

WHO ARE WE?

allinsure is an award-winning general insurance broking practice specialising in commercial insurance and risk management. Since 2007, we have focussed on making general insurance clearer and easier to understand for Australian business owners.

As insurance advisers, our job is to represent the client, understand their business, identify risks and help them put tools and programs in place to protect their assets, largely through the placement and management of insurance policies via our insurer partners. Most importantly, we provide advice, add real value to their business, and when things go wrong, we support them through every step of the claims process to get them back to where they were before the loss.

We are dedicated to providing exceptional service and advice to our clients, achieving fantastic claims outcomes and strengthening relationships with our insurer partners. We work hard to change the perception of insurance and our fun, collaborative, inclusive and community focused culture is something that we pride ourselves on.

THE ROLE

The Claims Officer role provides an opportunity to make an impact in an area of our industry that is focused on helping people and supporting them at the time of a loss. This role is pivotal to our team’s success and will require you to:

Oversee and action claims in conjunction with our support team/internal claims administrators and Advisers

Assist clients with arranging emergency repairs
Assist with redeveloping and implementing the business’ claims process
