    Excellent communication and negotiation skills

    Experience of a computer-based data/claims handling system

    Ability to deal with demanding customers in a sympathetic but firm manner over the telephone

    Able to cope with a fast-changing working environment

    A desire to embrace innovative working practices

    Ideally educated to `A` level/ degree standard.

    What will you get for this role?

    Competitive salary depending on skills, experience and qualifications

    Flexible working for most vacancies

    Healthcare scheme

    A Self Invested Personal Pension Scheme

    Holiday allowance of 25 days plus bank holidays

    Discounts on various products and services
