About the role

This executive interview covers the full claims operation, from complex decisions and reserving to customer outcomes, fraud controls and external suppliers. The panel wants evidence that you can improve performance without creating poor or unfair claim decisions. You should be ready to discuss major events, financial control and leadership across specialist teams.

How to prepare

  1. Prepare a case where you improved claims performance while protecting decision quality and customer outcomes.
  2. Review how you monitor reserves, leakage, recoveries, complaints, reopened claims and supplier performance.
  3. Think through how you would mobilise people and partners after a major loss event.
  4. Choose a complex settlement where legal, commercial and customer considerations pulled in different directions.
  5. Prepare an example of using fraud controls without delaying or disadvantaging genuine claimants.

Common mistakes

  • Equating lower claim payments with better claims performance.
  • Discussing speed without accuracy, fairness or reopened claims.
  • Making fraud suspicion sound like proof or treating every claimant as dishonest.
  • Ignoring how underwriting, actuarial and claims data should inform one another.
