Claims Adjuster - Casualty

New Vacancy - Claims Adjuster - Casualty
Lloyd's Syndicate
City of London

I am currently partnered with a leading Syndicate who are seeking a Claims Adjuster to join their Casualty division.

This role will be handling complex Casualty losses from the UK, US and other international jurisdictions on a lead and follow basis, from a primary and excess view (heavy excess on the US side - railroads, transportation, etc).

My client is seeking a Claims professional with 1-3+ years handling Casualty losses. US experience is not essential, but would be preferred. Perfect role for a second jobber.

• Adhere to authority limits, reserving philosophy, and claims standards at all times, ensuring appropriate escalation where required.
• Collaborate with internal and external stakeholders throughout the claims process, including policyholders, brokers, co-insurers, actuaries, and underwriters.
• Work effectively with appointed panel lawyers, adjusters, and third-party administrators (TPAs), providing oversight, technical guidance, and exercising financial authority where appropriate.
• Maintain accurate and comprehensive file management and record keeping at all times.
• Promote adherence to internal Claims Charter and Code of Conduct, ensuring delivery of high-quality client service.
• Support the Claims Manager and senior leadership with internal audit processes and reporting requirements.
• Contribute to thought leadership initiatives by developing new ideas and research to support underwriting and claims strategies.
• Enhance the profile of the Claims team through market engagement, including attendance at industry meetings, and support business development initiatives where appropriate.
