Motor Claims Handler
Full-time
Norwich, UK
As a Motor Claims Handler, you will own the final stage of the credit hire claim process. Once the hire period has ended, you will investigate the claim, challenge what is being charged, and negotiate a fair settlement that minimises the financial impact for our customers.
You will review hire, storage and recovery charges in detail, test whether the periods and rates claimed are reasonable, and decide whether storage was applicable at all.
Prior claims handling experience is preferable, but full training is provided. If you have transferable skills and a real appetite to learn, we'd like to hear from you.
