**The Opportunity**

How do you feel about the things you truly love? Don’t you want to protect them in the best way possible? Imagine if you could help people do this all over Australia. You’d give them confidence and reassurance by protecting what they love most.

- Optimise the use of rehab opinion from a medical perspective. This will include the timing of rehab opinions in case management
- Identify training needs particularly in the claims arena and partake in training programmes to upskill inhouse staff
- Support the development and insight provision to relevant areas of the business of health data

- Qualified as a Medical Practitioner for at least 3 years, ideally with registration in Australia
- Experience within the life insurance industry or financial services sector is preferable
- Experience in designing and delivering medical training programs is preferable
