Insurance claims inspector : Employers and vacancy sources

Insurance claims inspectors are employed by both large and small insurance companies to assess the validity of a range of claims made by their policyholders.

The key areas within insurance that require assessment include:

• domestic property, for example in incidents of fire;
• burglary;
• motor vehicle accidents.

Insurance companies also employ insurance claims inspectors in risk management teams to assess accidents in the workplace or the incidence of work-related illnesses.

Association of British Insurers (ABI) is the trade association for the insurance industry and it currently represents over 350 companies. The ABI website lists company contact details and business type.
