1. Please give an overview of your role and what this involves on a day-to-day basis:

I deal with Healthcare schemes (Private Medical Insurance, Dental, Travel etc) and Group Risk schemes (Group Life Assurance and Group Income Protection etc). I provide administration support to a sales consultant by helping assist with renewals, queries, claims, underwriting, membership etc. I ensure that the client has adequate cover in place and that they receive documentation and information in a timely manner.
