I started as a Repair Advisor on the subsidence team within Contractor Connection. I was responsible for my own case load from the start of repairs to completion. I updated customers, contractors and insurers on a daily basis. I was responsible for handling calls with the Insurer to assist in dealing with any repair issues and resolving them as quickly and efficiently as possible. In January 2025 I was promoted to Lead Advisor within the team. I assisted with training new starters, audits, providing assistance to the team on a daily basis, assisting team leader and Manager with administration duties and complaints. In May 2024, I was seconded to the Complaints team where I dealt with level 1 complaints, updated policyholders and endeavoured to provide a satisfactory resolution to their issue. In September 2024, I was transferred to the Property Restore Team as Lead Advisor. I was heading up the Axa team, so had weekly calls to discuss problematic cases and how to resolve them. I carried out audits, assisted with training, helped all team members with their case loads, revenue and provided feedback from the power BI reports daily. I was able to visit the Axa team in Glasgow and Morecombe to build up a rapport with both teams. I liaised with the Axa Subsidence team on a daily basis and built up strong relationships with everyone on the team which helped resolve any issues that occurred for either team. In September 2025 I moved to the Motor Third Party Property team, which is where I am currently. I am responsible for my own caseload where I review negotiate settlements for Highway claims.
