The role

We’re looking for experienced Senior Claims Assessors to join our Income Protection Claims team. This is a key role where your expertise, judgement and empathy will directly support customers at critical points in their lives.

  • Interpreting policy documentation accurately and applying sound technical judgement

  • Communicating decisions clearly, sensitively and in line with Treating Customers Fairly principles

  • Working closely with rehabilitation teams and internal stakeholders to support positive return‑to‑work outcomes

  • Coaching and mentoring colleagues, completing file reviews and supporting technical development

  • Building trusted relationships with customers, clients and colleagues

  • Contributing to continuous improvement and management information where required

What you’ll bring

  • At least 5 years’ experience assessing Income Protection claims (essential)

  • Proven experience managing complex and long‑term IP cases

  • Strong technical knowledge of Group Risk products and policy interpretation

  • A good understanding of long‑term medical conditions, NHS pathways and rehabilitation processes

  • Experience using claims management systems and functional assessments

  • Confident written and verbal communication skills, with the ability to explain decisions clearly

  • A collaborative approach, with a genuine interest in coaching and sharing knowledge

What we offer

  • A competitive salary plus performance‑based bonus (8.5%)

  • We operate a flexible working model, including fully remote options for candidates who live beyond a reasonable commuting distance from our offices.

  • Pension scheme

  • Life assurance, private medical and income protection cover

  • A wide range of wellbeing benefits, including:

    • Remote GP and second medical opinion

    • Nutrition coaching and personal training

    • Unlimited mental health support

  • 27 days’ holiday, plus bank holidays, with the option to buy or sell up to 5 days

  • Salary sacrifice electric car scheme with free onsite charging

  • Ongoing development in a supportive, purpose‑driven organisation
