This independent firm has a presence across Great Britain, but Yorkshire is home to the Head Office of its Credit Insurance Division. Due to the continued acquisition of Credit Insurance business, the need has arisen for an additional Account Handler to join the specialist team.

Here, you will play a key role in assisting Credit Insurance Account Executives and Directors in the day-to-day management of their client portfolios. These will comprise clients from a variety of sectors, ranging from SMEs to multi-million-pound turnover companies with complex supply chains across the country.

Duties will include:

1. Dealing with credit limit enquiries and any other questions about policy coverage.
2. Liaising with insurers regarding credit limit applications, both by phone and online systems.
3. Negotiating with Underwriters to secure comprehensive levels of cover at competitive premiums.
4. Dealing with a variety of stakeholders, such as chasing insurers for renewal terms and new business indications.
5. Undertaking various policy administration tasks, such as creating management information, taking notification of claims, preparing reports, and inputting information onto spreadsheets.

We welcome applications from experienced insurance professionals, as well as those from complementary areas who understand Credit Insurance, such as factoring, invoice discounting, or credit control backgrounds. It’s essential that you are well-organised, with strong communication skills (both written and verbal), and have the ability to liaise effectively with a wide range of stakeholders.

Being such a successful company that continues to enjoy impressive ongoing growth, a wealth of career development opportunities are available. You’ll be rewarded with a competitive basic salary, together with a comprehensive range of company benefits.
