  3. To lead on the provision of risk management training.
  4. Provide specialist advice and consultancy on Risk Management, Insurance and Liability issues to meet the specific needs of Members, Directors, Senior Managers and Officers in the effective discharge of their duties and requirements for service delivery.

  6. Manage and coordinate the Risk and Insurance financial responsibilities.
  7. Responsibility for a variety of Council contracts in respect of insurance, claims handling and related services.
  8. Contribute to the setting and monitoring of relevant insurance budgets, long-term financial planning to set levels of expenditure to meet service requirements in a cost-effective manner.

  2. Detailed knowledge and understanding of the principles and practice of legal liability claims against Local Authorities, and the requirements of the related Civil Procedure rules and litigation process.
  3. Excellent understanding of the decision-making process in Local Government.
  4. Extensive insurance experience and its application to the requirements of the Public Sector.
  5. Experience of claims handling within the Public Sector (Ideally in a local authority setting).
