The Claims Technician (known internally as Adjusting Executive) is a technical assistant role, designed to support the Loss Adjuster throughout the handling of the claims. You'll be the first point of contact, guiding customers through the claims process. Each day brings a new puzzle: deciphering details, recommending settlements, and collaborating with contractors to get things fixed.

You’ll coordinate with multiple stakeholders — from structural engineers to restoration specialists — all while keeping the claimant informed, supported, and confident in the process.

  • Comprehensive Training: You'll receive all the Sedgwick-specific training needed to excel in your role.

This isn't just a position, it's a pivotal role in shaping our industry 


At Sedgwick, not only will you be working behind the scenes for some of the UK's most trusted insurance brands helping to resolve millions of claims every year, you'll also be an architect of tomorrow's insurance landscape with Sedgwick University. Our proprietary offering is the most comprehensive training and development program in the industry with more than 15,000 courses on demand, training specific to roles, and opportunities to continue your formal education – all available to you starting from your very first day.
