Job Description This is a fully remote Liability Claims Handler position within a substantial UK claims operation, dealing with a varied portfolio of EL, PL, personal liability and commercial liability losses. You will manage claims through to settlement under delegated authority, while working alongside experienced Liability Adjusters where matters become more complex. For somebody who enjoys liability claims but wants more technical exposure and a clearer longer-term career path, the role offers a sensible next move without requiring you to leave behind the claims handling experience you have already built. As a Liability Claims Handler, you will take ownership of your own caseload and manage claims from initial instruction through investigation, liability decision and settlement. You will be expected to review evidence, understand policy coverage, make reasoned decisions on liability and quantum, and negotiate settlements where appropriate. On higher-value or more involved matters, you will work closely with an assigned Liability Adjuster, giving you exposure to more complex claims and the opportunity to develop the technical skills needed to progress towards a field-based adjusting role. The business has considerable capability across desk and field adjusting, so there is established technical support around you rather than the expectation that you deal with difficult cases in isolation. The Liability Claims Handler role responsibilities will include: Managing an end-to-end caseload of Employers' Liability, Public Liability, personal liability and commercial liability claims. Reviewing policy wording and establishing the extent of cover. Liaising with policyholders, clients, brokers, solicitors and other parties involved in the claim. Working with Liability Adjusters on more complex or higher-value losses. Managing client instructions, service levels and claims progression while maintaining accurate file records. You will already have experience managing Liability claims rather than simply providing administrative support around them. End-to-end Employers' Liability and Public Liability claims handling experience. Delegated claims authority in the region of £25,000 to £100,000 or above. The ability to assess quantum and make defensible claims decisions. Confidence working within a measured claims environment where service and performance standards matter. A sound understanding of relevant regulatory requirements and treating customers fairly. You will be joining a well-established liability claims operation with access to experienced adjusters and specialist resources, while retaining ownership of your own claims. There is also a defined opportunity to develop towards field-based liability adjusting if that is where you want your career to go. Further professional study is supported, and the wider organisation provides scope to build a longer-term career across different areas of claims and adjusting. The role is remote, giving you the flexibility to work from home while remaining part of an established UK liability claims team. If you are an experienced Liability Claims Handler and the role sounds relevant, you do not need to have decided that you are definitely leaving your current employer before getting in touch.
