With over 140 industry partnerships and 80,000 customers nationally, we are uniquely positioned to offer insurance our customers can depend on.

The role:

As part of our Short Tail Claims team, you'll report directly to the Head of Short Tail Claims and lead a team of six highly skilled technical claims specialists.

• Build strong stakeholder relationships and contribute to supplier performance and cross-functional collaboration

What we are looking for:

• Proven leadership capability or a strong desire to step into a leadership role, with a passion for developing others
• Extensive experience in general insurance claims—particularly commercial property—with a solid grasp of industry best practices and regulatory frameworks
• A confident communicator who can influence and engage stakeholders at all levels
• A strategic thinker who thrives on solving problems and driving continuous improvement
• A collaborative and inspiring team player who leads with empathy and purpose
• A customer-first mindset with a commitment to delivering outstanding service and support

What we offer?

• Hybrid working arrangement (2 days in office and 3 days from home)
• A role that will provide you depth and breadth of experience you just can't get in bigger organisations. You'll be highly visible and so will the work you do as a leader
• Participation in our annual short term incentive program
• Staff discounts and offers with leading retailers and an innovative Employee Assistance Programme
