Who are we?
Howden is a collective – a group of talented and passionate people all around the world. Together, we have pushed the boundaries of insurance. We are united by a shared passion and no-limits mindset, and our strength lies in our ability to collaborate as a powerful international team comprised of 18,000 employees spanning over 100 countries.
People join Howden for many different reasons, but they stay for the same one: our culture. It’s what sets us apart, and the reason our employees have been turning down headhunters for years. Whatever your priorities – work / life balance, career progression, sustainability, volunteering – you’ll find like-minded people driving change at Howden.
The Role
This role involves handling a portfolio of Financial Lines claims for a variety of professions, including Solicitors, Accountants, Architects and Surveyors. We are looking for an individual who has the ability to review policy wordings, and is comfortable advocating on behalf of our clients, so that they acquire the accurate policy coverage available under the terms of their policy.
The role is hybrid, with an expectation of 3 days working in the office. Although primarily passionate about Professional Indemnity, the team also handles Directors & Officers, Cyber and Financial Institutions claims, and there may be scope for the right candidate to move into these areas in the future.
What you'll be doing:
-
Reviewing, drafting and submitting notifications to insurers.
-
Collaborating closely with various stakeholders, including clients, placing colleagues and insurers to keep all parties up to date, and to ensure that claims are being proactively handled in the client’s best interests.
-
Maintaining accurate data and records within our case management systems.
-
Producing Thought Leadership pieces for markets and areas of interest to clients.
Who we're looking for:
-
Good verbal and written communication skills.
-
Highly organised, and able to prioritise workloads and own time.
-
Resilient and calm under pressure.
-
A minimum of two years of experience working within insurance claims, either at a broker, insurer or law firm.
What do we offer in return?
A career that you define. At Howden, we value diversity – there is no one Howden type. Instead, we’re looking for individuals who share the same values as us:
-
Our successes have all come from someone brave enough to try something new
-
We support each other in the small everyday moments and the bigger challenges
-
We are determined to make a positive difference at work and beyond
