- Follow up Disputes Tribunal outcomes to ensure settlement by the debtor, referring to court action where necessary.
- Remain up to date with the legislative requirements affecting our business.

**What you'll need**

You must have an understanding of Insurance liability and the GI Claim Lifecycle; and you must be resilient with an ability to negotiate debt recovery. You must also be able to understand financial vulnerability and respond accordingly.

**To be successful in this role, you will also be able to demonstrate the following**:

- Minimum 6 months + experience in managing motor /complex/ property claims
- Experience of Disputes Tribunal proceeding is an advantage.
- 2 years' experience in the Insurance or Financial Services Industry preferred.

We pride ourselves on encouraging everyone to bring their whole selves to work, and we embrace diverse opinions, experience and backgrounds. Making sure we are doing what's right.
