They will also investigate and manage insurance-related claims in a cost-effective manner, in accordance with policy terms and conditions.

  • Maintain a comprehensive understanding of the insurance market, available policy covers, and emerging products that the company can access as needed.
  • Lead engagement with the market and brokers to secure the best value and most comprehensive insurance cover for Elgin.
  • Advise the business on balancing major risk insurance with appropriate levels of self-insurance where it is cost-effective.
