  • Prepare detailed analytical reports covering policy coverage, liability, quantum, and recommended actions.
  • Handle a varied caseload including medical malpractice, clinical trial, product liability (PL), and employers' liability (EL) claims — both UK and international.

  • Support business development through client engagement and cross-team collaboration.

About You:

  • You are a technically skilled and confident Adjuster who takes ownership of your caseload and demonstrates professional integrity at all times. You'll have the ability to handle complex liability claims with precision and sound judgment, while maintaining a commercial awareness of productivity and cost management.

Essential Skills & Experience:

  • Proven experience managing a mixed portfolio of specialist liability or medical malpractice claims.
  • Strong analytical and investigative skills with attention to detail.
  • Excellent communication, negotiation, and report-writing abilities.
  • Financially astute with experience managing WIP and debt.
  • Strong customer focus and a proactive, solution-oriented mindset.
  • Effective team player with the ability to build collaborative internal and external relationships.
  • Organised, resilient, and adaptable in managing competing priorities.
  • Confident user of relevant claims and business technology systems.

Desirable:

  • Experience handling international claims.
  • Familiarity with delegated authority arrangements.
