Senior Claims Adjuster - International Casualty in Cupar

An established insurer is looking to appoint an experienced Senior Claims Adjuster into its International Casualty team. This is an excellent opportunity for a technically strong casualty claims professional to join a busy and highly specialist environment, handling a varied portfolio of complex direct and reinsurance claims across international jurisdictions. The team manages a broad mix of casualty losses, with a particular focus on the US, Canada and Australia, alongside other territories worldwide. The role can be based in London, Ipswich, Brighton or Darlington.

This position will suit someone who is confident managing their own caseload, setting strategy, driving claims through to settlement, and challenging key stakeholders where needed in order to protect underwriting interests and ensure robust reserving rationale.

• Managing a blend of direct and assumed reinsurance casualty claims

• Working across a broad range of casualty losses including employers liability, public liability, motor/trucking, products liability, law enforcement liability, New York labour law and construction defect claims

• Strong Lloyd’s / London Market claims experience
• ECF experience, which is essential
• Experience handling International Casualty claims, particularly involving the US and/or Canada and/or Australia
• Experience adjusting assumed reinsurance claims, including XoL and Treaty
• The ability to manage a caseload independently and drive files to resolution
• Strong reserving, negotiation and stakeholder management skills
• A solid understanding of downside risk from an underwriting perspective
• Previous experience in a busy syndicate, MGA or insurer environment is preferred
