Halifax West Yorkshire, United Kingdom Zego Full time

About Zego

We’re a commercial motor insurer on a mission to save people time and money. From scooter delivery riders to private hire taxi drivers, our customers are our driving force. We’re making insurance fairer and more human for every one of them.

When we started back in 2016, we knew that traditional insurance held businesses back. It was too complicated, too expensive and too time consuming. So we set out to change things, building insurance solutions that empower professional drivers throughout the UK and Europe.

So far, we’ve raised over $200 million in funding. We’ve grown from a scrappy start-up into an industry changing organisation, and there’s plenty more to come. 

That’s where you come in…

Purpose of role

We’re looking for a Motor Engineer with a passion for improving claims processes and customer experience. As our claims team continues to scale, we are looking for a desk-based motor engineer who is a subject matter expert to directly support the claims teams. 

This role will be a core part of our engineering expertise and will not only improve the experience for our customers but support our team in reducing claims leakage.

What you will be doing

  • Reviewing repair estimates, reports and invoices to ensure that costs are controlled, repair methods are carried out to Thatcham, and or Manufacturers specification.
  • Support customer repairs by ensuring estimates from network and non-network repairers are appropriate for the damage caused by the incident providing feedback to repairers where warranted and authorising repairs in a timely manner. 
  • Supporting total loss queries using industry valuation tools (Glass’s MVA, Percayso) to place accurate valuations on total loss vehicles taking into account mileage, condition and pre-existing damage including information about the vehicles history from HPI and MIAFTR. This will be supported by conducting market research to support total loss settlements. Finally, place accurate salvage category on the salvage in accordance with the ABI Code of Conduct 2017
  • Upskilling and supporting the handling teams with ad-hoc queries while also providing training to increase the engineering knowledge across the claims and fraud team

What you will need to be successful

  • You’ll have previous experience in the motor trade with experience of mechanical vehicle repairs and an understanding of vehicle body damage repair techniques and methods
  • You’ll have an understanding and ability to read, interpret engineers reports on all levels and knowledge of key repair and valuation systems (e.g. Glass’s Guide, Glass’s Repair Estimate, Audatex and GT Motive)
  • You’ll have knowledge of the legal requirement for roadworthy vehicles in accordance to the Road Traffic Act
  • You’ll have an ability to work independently in a fast moving office supporting the claims team for all technical enquiries and while working with salvage agents and repair networks to help resolve issues in a timely fashion.
  • You’ll have excellent stakeholder management and experience managing external stakeholders and building relationships
  • You’ll be detail oriented, proactive and able to problem solve and suggest solutions
  • You’ll have the capacity to multitask and prioritise in a logical, structured and disciplined manner
  • You’ll have a current AQP qualification ID number is essential
  • Ideally you’ll have a recognised motor vehicle qualification such as IMI, and be a member of the Institute of Automotive Engineering Assessors (IAEA)
