Sefton Council’s Risk & Audit Service is seeking to appoint an experienced, highly motivated, and enthusiastic Insurance Claims Technician to join the Insurance Team. The person appointed will have responsibility for providing a comprehensive insurance advisory, supportive and investigatory service to service areas of the Council and ensure that adequate insurance is in place to protect the Council’s assets and liabilities.

The successful applicant will be required to engage in and manage all aspects of complex, serious and high value claims received by the Council for any liability and to be a Lead Officer for liaising with Insurers, Claims Handlers, and external and internal Legal representatives.

You will support the Council in developing and implementing improvements to reduce risk, identifying poor practices and, in conjunction with other risk services, providing recommendations for improvements in systems and processes.

You must have the ability to demonstrate a commitment to the delivery and development of the Insurance Service along with a knowledge of the following: -

• Insurance cover requirements for a large organisation, in order to ensure the Council has adequate insurance to meet its liabilities.
• Relevant legislation and appropriate claims handling processes and investigation processes relating to insurance claims in order to provide the Council with robust systems/processes for the defence of insurance related claims as appropriate.
• Insurance and Broker Tender processes.

If you have the requisite levels of experience, skills, and qualifications then we would like to hear from you.
