Trainee Claims Technician

Job Location: Glasgow Job Type: Permanent Remuneration: Competitive salary taking into account skills, experience and qualifications 

We have a fantastic opportunity for Trainee Claims Technicians in Glasgow. 

Step into a dynamic role where you’ll be at the heart of the claims process. As a Trainee Claims Technician, you’ll take ownership of insurance claims from the moment they’re reported right through to final settlement. Don’t worry — full training will be provided to help you succeed.

From day one, you’ll be the key point of contact for customers. You’ll make decisions, liaise with suppliers and contractors, and work collaboratively to deliver the best possible outcome for each individual case.

Using cutting-edge digital tools, including video technology, you’ll assess damage remotely and coordinate with on-site teams. This not only speeds up the claims process but also enhances the overall customer experience.

Your responsibilities will span across managing claim details, maintaining regular communication with customers and suppliers, overseeing the progress of supplier work, and keeping a close eye on costs and payments. Throughout, you’ll uphold high technical standards and ensure the customer remains your top priority.

We’re seeking someone who thrives in a fast-paced environment. If you’re a strong communicator, highly organised, and quick to adapt to change, you’ll fit right in. Confidence with technology and a passion for continuous learning are also key. Joining our team means more than just starting a new job — it’s a chance to build a career.

The skills you will have when you apply: 

Experience in a customer facing role: Previous experience in a call centre or a fast-paced, customer-focused environment is essential. Experience within a claims setting would be beneficial, though not required.

Excellent communication skills: You will interact with policyholders, insurers, contractors, and other stakeholders. You’ll need to explain complex details clearly and negotiate fair settlements for all parties involved.

Commitment to professional development: A dedication to working towards the Chartered Institute of Loss Adjusters' Cert CILA qualification is essential.
