Recoveries Claims Handler

At Zego, we understand that traditional motor insurance holds good drivers back. It's too complicated, too expensive, and it doesn't reflect how well you actually drive. Since 2016, we have been on a mission to change that by offering the lowest priced insurance for good drivers.

From van drivers and gig workers to everyday car drivers, our customers are the driving force behind everything we do. We've sold tens of millions of policies and raised over $200 million in funding and picked up numerous awards, including the Insurance Claims Team Of The Year 2024 as awarded at The Insurance Post's Claims & Fraud Awards. And we're only just getting started.

That's where you come in...

We're on the lookout for a passionate, driven, and detail-oriented Claims Recovery Handler to join our growing team in Halifax. This is a great opportunity for individuals with prior insurance experience who are looking to develop a specialism in recovery. You'll play a vital role in protecting Zego's financial position by pursuing subrogation and third-party recoveries, challenging credit hire costs, ensuring every recovery opportunity is identified and maximised.
