Claim Service Advisor Review

I work as a Claim Service Advisor and it involves hanling all claims for my alligned clients and helping them keep their claims on track with their insurer.

I have learned more about the basic principles of insurance from the IF1 and from attending webinars and learning about diffrent lines of insurance and types of claims such as disease claims, med mal claims, contractors all risk claims.

I love learning and developing my technical skills but I have struggled to balance the programme with my work and home life balance and managing my stress and improving my time management. The programme expectations and tips on how to balance everything should be explained in more detail at the start.

I believe the programme is well organised in that the workload is spread out as much as possible and the targets are set based on my own pace. I believe the programe can be a bit demanding at times and there are a lot of different aspects to juggle and it might be better for some of these requirements to be reduced by the government so as to make a work life balance easier and to also factor in for people who are furtehr into their craeers and have more demanding jobs or where their companies cannot give them tons of hours a week for the programme.

A fair amount in terms of I am asked how I am gettign on on numerous occassionas and my workload is assessed regularliy and adjusted to help me not feel overwhelmed. If I have any issues with my programme my manager is willing to do anything to help me improve this or raise concerns about the programme on my behalf. They also support me in my progress reviews.

I get regular progress review meetings where I can ask for additional resources or advise on how to do better on the programme. I am also provided tons of different rescources to help me learn the course content and prepare me as much as possible to sit the final exam.

It does help me learn new content by making it a requirement for me to focus on new learning but it does also create a lot of additonal stress and make it hard to balance my actual job with the high demands of the programme. It is also a challenge to constantly have to think how I am improving and how I can evidence this to pass the programme.

Yes my work encourages me to attend any confrenceses I feel I would benefit from and gives me the time out for these. My team works hard to arrange regular social events for team building and we are encouraged to remain social while at work.

Yes

Aon is a very supportive company who helps their employees feel valued and makes sure their employees workload is managed effectively so as to avoid work related stress and burn out. Aon also pays a decent salary which is fair within the market and offers many benefits such as health insurance. All teams are managed very well and the team dynamic is always considered when hiring new people. Aon encourages development and career progression within the organisation and helps you easily obtain your career goals. Any desire for qualifications or extra learning is paid for by Aon.

I highly recommend Aon as a company and advise to prepare well for the interview in advance as it is a competency based interview. Any prior experience within the indtsuryt is hugely helpful but if you have none Aon offers apprenticeship programmes for people having just left school.
