Claims Processor – Join Our Team!

Role Overview

Join our team and help us deliver exceptional service to customers of a leading Private Health Insurer! As a Claims Handler, you’ll be key to ensuring that customer claims are handled smoothly, efficiently, and in a way that meets – or even exceeds – expectations. You’ll focus on day-to-day tasks, like processing claims, ensuring accuracy, and contributing to ongoing improvements in our processes.

What You'll Do

  • Record claim notifications accurately, request any necessary documents, and process claims (settle, decline, or pend) in a timely and efficient manner.
  • Take ownership of claims from start to finish, ensuring smooth and timely settlements.
  • Offer helpful, accurate advice to claimants, using your knowledge of policy terms and conditions.
  • Review your allocated cases and aim to settle them within your authority, following company standards and procedures.
  • Interact with customers professionally and courteously, ensuring high customer satisfaction at all times.
  • Collaborate with customers and their representatives to maintain excellent service and smooth operations.
  • Support new team members by providing guidance and sharing your expertise.
  • Work towards obtaining your minimum insurance qualification and continue learning through CPD (Continuing Professional Development) as needed.
  • Contribute to the team’s overall goals and success by working collaboratively and sharing ideas.

Who We're Looking For

Qualifications and Experience

  • A levels, Leaving Cert, or equivalent, with passes in English and Maths – this will help you through regulatory training and exams.

Skills We Value

  • Basic computer skills and knowledge of Microsoft Office.
  • A positive, team-oriented attitude with a focus on supporting others and being flexible.
  • Great communication skills, both written and spoken.
  • A self-motivated approach with the ability to meet deadlines and manage your workload independently.
  • Strong attention to detail and a commitment to delivering high-quality work.

Nice to Have

  • While no formal insurance experience is needed (we’ll train you!), knowledge of the Consumer Protection Code and Central Bank of Ireland Regulatory Requirements is a plus.
  • Qualifications like APA or CIP, or a degree would be an added advantage.

What We Offer

  • A clear career progression path, with the opportunity to earn insurance qualifications and advance your career in sales.
  • Competitive salary with performance-based incentives, bonuses, and overtime opportunities.
  • 20 days of paid holiday to relax and recharge.
  • Discounts on insurance products.
  • Employee referral schemes – bring your friends and earn rewards!
  • A fun and social work environment with regular team events and activities.
  • Full support for your ongoing learning and development.

Additional Requirements

  • A secure internet and mobile connection for remote work (if applicable).
