Travel Insurance Adviser University of Exeter


Ref: P41611
£15,303 per annum pro rata
This part time post is available immediately on a permanent basis. The post is 17.5 hours a week, ideally worked over a minimum of 4 days.
Staff and students make over 2200 trips overseas each year to undertake world class research and as part of their Year Abroad study programme. The majority of these trips are covered by the University’s comprehensive travel insurance policy. To ensure these travellers have the right level of support, the Insurance team have developed a range of measures including:
  • Automated web based application process for notifying travel arrangements
  • Advice and support on travelling overseas
  • Daily monitoring of world events 
  • Security alerts via SMS and e-mail
  • Comprehensive claims service/emergency assistance
The Travel Insurance Adviser is responsible for delivering this package of support to staff and students across the University. This is a varied and very interesting role: we have arranged cover for trips to the Arctic, remote regions with little or no modern facilities and politically unstable regions. We have also helped travellers who have suffered a medical emergency abroad, been delayed due to volcanic ash and had belongings stolen.     
To be successful in this role, you will need good organisational, administrative and interpersonal skills and enjoy putting these to good use providing an excellent level of customer service. Ideally, you will have insurance experience gained whilst working for a broker or insurer or have been involved in a Health & Safety role or similar.   
For further information, please contact Paul Hirst, Insurance & Business Continuity Manager on (01392) 723087 / 723930.  
The closing date for completed applications is midnight on Tuesday 26 March.
The University of Exeter is an equal opportunity employer which is 'Positive about Disabled People'. Whilst all applicants will be judged on merit alone, we particularly welcome applications from groups currently underrepresented in the workforce.
