Start Your Career in Claims

Claims probably isn’t a career most people grow up thinking about. But if you like figuring things out, talking with people, making decisions, and having work that’s a little different every day, you might be surprised by how well it fits.

And you don't need to already know insurance.

Our Claims training program is designed to teach you the business while giving you the support and coaching to grow into the role.

You'll learn how to:

• Piece together what happened by talking with customers, claimants, and witnesses
• Review information and make coverage and liability decisions
• Evaluate damages and determine next steps
• Work with customers and other parties to resolve claims
• Negotiate settlements
• Manage a caseload and keep claims moving
• Be the person customers can count on during an unexpected situation

What you bring: curiosity, communication skills, good judgment, organization, and a willingness to learn.

What we'll bring: the training and support to help you learn claims and build a career from there.

If you're looking for an opportunity where you can learn, make decisions, help people, and build a long-term career, take a look at Claims at West Bend.
