In your role you will have responsibility for a portfolio of claims and you will assist the Adjusters in achieving settlement with minimal lapse time.

policy wordings, etc)
3. Undertaking preliminary enquiries into the circumstances of the loss

Whilst primary responsibility for the claim rests with the Adjuster you will be expected to become involved in the day to day running of files and thus the negotiations and settlement which this entails.
