  • 1. Please give an overview of your role and what this involves on a day-to-day basis:
  • My role is an FNOL (First Notifiction of Loss) handler within Commercial Motor Claims. I also deal with the Personal Motor Scheme portfolio. I am the first point of contact for customers when they call in to report an incident. I then deal with liability discussion, assign suppliers and notify responsible parties.

  • 7. How well do you feel that your qualification (through your training provider) helps you to perform better in your role?
  • Its given me a lot more confidence in how I do my work. It has given me a greater insight into insurance and how insuers and the FCA and PRA operate, which I didn't know before. Having a professional qualification will open more doors in RSA for me.

  • 8. Are there extra-curricular activities to get involved in at your work? (For example, any social activities, sports teams, or even professional networking events.)
  • Well. I did the Apprenticship at the wrong time as it was in the middle of the Covid-19 pandemnic. I am still WFH, so extra cirrucular activies haven't restarted. Although with lifting of restrictions, this may change
