  • 1. Please give an overview of your role and what this involves on a day-to-day basis:
  • I currently work in claims as a handler where I take calls on a day to day basis and deal with customers new and existing claims. As well as this, we do post work to assist our customers through the claims process and help progress their claim forwards. My apprenticeship is done alongside this.
