At AXA XL we solve today’s complex risks to drive tomorrow’s innovation. We see our careers with AXA XL as a chance to unleash our potential globally. Cultivate expertise. Collaborate constantly. Analyse deeper. Dream bigger.

Our Claims team sets us apart. Our experienced Claims professionals use their expertise to handle the most complex claims seamlessly. You focus on excellence and creating a culture of continuous improvement, fostering collaboration, customer service, and colleague development.

This is a permanent opportunity for an experienced and enthusiastic Casualty Claims professional to work with the London Wholesale Casualty Claims team, contributing to the excellent offering we provide to our clients across the globe.
