For Employers
We test the brief against the market, then assess candidates against the role, environment and result the appointment must deliver.
Insurance Recruitment
Insurance recruitment starts with understanding the product, client and risk.
Claims, broking, underwriting support and account handling call for different market knowledge. We establish the product lines, responsibilities and customer context before assessing candidates.
Sector overview
Insurance experience must be relevant to the work.
A claims handler and commercial account handler may share an industry, but their technical knowledge, customer conversations and measures of success are different. The brief needs that distinction.
Employers and candidates
Clear expectations improve both sides of the process.
The search works better when the employer and candidate both understand the work, the practical requirements and the reason for the move.
