Make a difference to customers by turning complex travel claims into clear, fair and timely outcomes.

As a Travel Claims Assessor, you’ll play an important role in supporting customers when their travel plans haven’t gone as expected. You’ll manage your own portfolio of travel claims from assessment through to resolution, providing a professional, efficient and empathetic service while ensuring each claim is handled accurately and in line with policy terms, regulatory requirements and agreed service levels.

You’ll review the circumstances of each claim, interpret policy wording and make informed decisions within your claims handling authority. This will include maintaining accurate claim records, processing payments promptly and identifying cases that require referral, including potential fraud, recoveries or complaints. Clear communication will be key, as you’ll keep customers informed throughout the process and explain decisions in a straightforward and supportive way.

Working as part of a collaborative team, you’ll manage and prioritise your workload to make sure claims progress efficiently and service standards are consistently met. You’ll also have the opportunity to share your technical knowledge with colleagues, support their development and contribute ideas that could improve the way we work and the service we provide to both customers and clients.

The skills you will have when you apply:

• Travel insurance knowledge: A good understanding of travel insurance products and policy wordings, with the ability to interpret and apply policy terms accurately.
• Claims knowledge: A good understanding of the claims lifecycle and how claims progress from initial notification through to resolution.
• Analytical skills: Strong analytical and numeracy skills, with the confidence to review information and make well-informed decisions.
• Attention to detail: A highly accurate and thorough approach, ensuring claim information and decisions are recorded correctly.
• Digital skills: Confident using Microsoft Word and Excel, with the ability to learn and navigate claims management systems.
• Communication: Excellent verbal and written communication skills, with the ability to communicate clearly and empathetically with customers and colleagues.
• Initiative: Able to work independently, manage your own workload and take a proactive approach to resolving issues and identifying improvements.
• Organisation: Strong organisational and prioritisation skills, with the ability to manage multiple claims while working to agreed service levels.

What we’ll give you for this role:

• Bonus/incentive scheme
• 20 days' annual leave entitlement
• Bike to Work Scheme
• Tax Saver Travel Scheme 
• Discounted onsite Gym Membership (Dublin 4)
• Discounted onsite Montessori (Dublin 4)
• EAP – Employee Assistance Programme
• Life Cover
• PHI – Permanent Health Insurance

• Professional and personal development opportunities

This isn't just a position, it's an opportunity to build a rewarding career in claims.

At Sedgwick, you'll help people and businesses recover when the unexpected happens, working alongside some of the most trusted names in insurance.
