We are looking for a Claims Handler to join us at INSHUR! We’re based in sunny Brighton, and our company embraces a flexible working model, allowing us to hire the best person for the job. You’ll have the opportunity to work remotely, while also connecting with your colleagues at our Brighton office on occasions for training and events. You’ll be working on re-inventing insurance in exciting markets across multiple territories including the UK, US, and the Netherlands, with plans to expand into new European countries.

We value high performance and care deeply about making INSHUR a place where everyone is building something special, that we can all be proud of, while enjoying the ride.

What You’ll Be Doing

This isn’t your typical claims role. You’ll take ownership of a diverse portfolio of third-party motor claims, including personal injury, and play a key role in delivering fast, fair, and data-driven outcomes. Working in a modern, tech-enabled environment, you’ll be trusted to make decisions, challenge the status quo, and help shape how claims are handled.

In This Role, You Will

• Manage claims end-to-end giving you full visibility and control, from first notification through to settlement, across both damage and personal injury elements.
• Make confident liability decisions and drive claims to resolution with a strong commercial mindset.
• Negotiate effectively with third parties, insurers, and representatives to deliver the right outcome at the right cost.
• Build strong relationships across the market while also influencing outcomes through a digital-first approach.
• Work closely with product, data, and operations teams to identify trends and improve claims performance.
• Use technology and insight to streamline processes, reduce friction, and enhance the overall customer experience.

What We’re Looking For

We’re looking for high performers who combine technical claims expertise with curiosity, pace, and a problem-solving mindset.

You’ll Thrive Here If

• Thrive navigating ambiguity and finding clarity in uncertain situations.
• Take pride in being accountable and owning your responsibilities.
• Enjoy in a fast-paced environment where change happens quickly.
• Are solutions-focused and driven to overcome challenges.
• Embrace resilience and adapt to setbacks with a positive attitude.
• Are intellectually curious, constantly seeking to learn, explore new ideas, and not afraid to question and improve your understanding.

You May Not Enjoy Working Here If

• Prefer a more structured, slow-moving environment.
• Feel most comfortable when tasks and processes are clearly defined from the start.
• Struggle with handling multiple challenges at once or adapting to frequent changes.
• Tend to stick strictly to your defined role and avoid contributing outside of your responsibilities.

What to expect from the process

• Screen & Intro: 30-minute video call with the Talent Team to discuss the role and your experience.
• First Interview: 60-minute video call to dive into your experience and get to know your motivations.
• Final Stage: An in-person interview at our Brighton office, meet the team.

What We Offer
