1What this role really is

You'll be the backbone of our global insurance operations, making sure our policies are in place, claims are handled smoothly, and all the fiddly bits of data are spot on. This isn't just about paperwork; it's about keeping the company protected worldwide. You'll work closely with the wider Finance team, but also with our business units across the globe, ensuring everyone understands what's needed for our insurance programmes. Think of yourself as the central hub for all things insurance admin, making sure we're always covered, no matter what.

2What you'd actually use

The tools this job runs on, and how well you'd need to know each one.

RMIS (Origami Risk / Riskonnect)Intermediate

Heavy use for data entry, running pre-built reports, attaching policy documents and claim correspondence, and managing COI requests. You'll be in this system daily.

Carrier/Broker Portals (e.g., Chubb Worldview, AIG Connect)Intermediate

Downloading policy documents, loss runs, and managing COI issuance. You'll troubleshoot basic data discrepancies with broker contacts via these portals.

ERP / Finance Systems (e.g., SAP S/4HANA, Oracle NetSuite)Intermediate

Locating cost centre data, running basic allocation reports, and retrieving financial information needed for exposure data collection or premium reconciliation.

Advanced ExcelIntermediate

Heavy use of VLOOKUP/XLOOKUP, PivotTables, and advanced data filtering to organise exposure data, cleanse loss runs, and support premium allocation calculations. You'll be building and maintaining spreadsheets regularly.

Analytics & Visualization (Power BI / Tableau)Basic

Viewing and filtering pre-built dashboards to understand claim trends, policy summaries, or exposure breakdowns. You won't be building new dashboards, but you'll be a regular user.

Doc Mgmt & Collaboration (SharePoint / Confluence)Intermediate

Managing folder structures and permissions for policies, COIs, and claims documentation. You'll ensure version control for critical renewal documents and use it for internal team collaboration.

3What you get to decide, and how that grows

Power in a job isn't your title. It's what you're allowed to decide. Here's how it grows as you move up.

The choiceComing inWhere you are nowThe step above
COI IssuanceIssues standard COIs based on templates, all non-standard requests escalated to L2.Independently issues standard and most non-standard COIs, escalating only highly complex or legally sensitive requests to L3/Legal.Reviews and approves complex COI requests, advises business units on contractual insurance requirements, and negotiates terms with clients/vendors where needed.
Claim ManagementGathers initial claim documentation and reports FNOL to L2/L3 for processing.Manages routine claims end-to-end (e.g., minor property, auto), acting as primary liaison. Escalates complex claims (e.g., major liability, D&O) to L3/L4.Leads complex claim investigations, negotiates with adjusters/TPAs, and makes recommendations on reserving and settlement strategy to L4/L5.
Exposure Data ValidationPerforms basic data entry and formatting of exposure data as instructed.Collects, cleanses, and validates exposure data from multiple sources, identifying discrepancies and proposing solutions to L3.Designs and refines exposure data collection processes, performs advanced data integrity audits, and advises on data quality improvements.
Policy Review & EndorsementsFiles policy documents and endorsements; flags obvious errors.Performs initial review of policy binders and endorsements against negotiated terms, highlighting variances to L3.Conducts detailed policy language analysis, identifies coverage gaps or restrictive clauses, and proposes solutions or amendments to L4/L5.

4How you'll be judged

The scoreboard, honestly: the hard targets, how often each one is actually looked at, and the quiet human signals that never make it onto a dashboard.

COI Issuance Turnaround Time
The average time it takes to issue a Certificate of Insurance (COI) once a complete request is received.
Target · < 24 hours for standard requests; < 4 hours for urgent requests

If you get 50 standard COI requests in a month, and 48 are issued within 24 hours (and the 2 urgent ones within 4 hours), you're hitting the target.

RMIS Data Entry Accuracy
The percentage of insurance data points (e.g., policy details, claim updates, exposure data) entered into our Risk Management Information System (RMIS) without error.
Target · > 99.5% accuracy

Out of 1,000 data fields reviewed in a quarterly audit, you should have no more than 5 errors. This is crucial; a misplaced decimal can cost us thousands.

Claim Reporting Timeliness
The percentage of new claims reported to our broker or carrier within 48 hours of receiving the First Notice of Loss (FNOL) from an internal business unit.
Target · 100% of claims reported within 48 hours

If HR reports a new injury claim on Monday, you need to make sure it's with the broker by Wednesday morning. Delays can impact coverage.

Exposure Data Collection Support Completeness
The percentage of required exposure data (e.g., property values, payroll figures) collected from business units and compiled for renewal submissions by the internal deadline.
Target · 95% completeness by internal deadline (typically 90 days pre-renewal)

If we need data from 100 business units, you'll ensure 95 of them have submitted their complete, validated data on time, even if it means chasing them relentlessly.

Reliability and Follow-Through
How consistently you deliver on commitments and see tasks through to completion, especially when managing ongoing processes.
  • You'll be the person who consistently meets deadlines for data submissions. Colleagues will tell your manager that when you say you'll do something, it gets done. You'll proactively follow up on outstanding items without being prompted, making sure nothing slips through the cracks. This is about being the dependable one.
Problem Identification & Resolution (within scope)
Your ability to spot issues in data or processes and either fix them or raise them with your manager with a proposed solution.
  • You'll flag discrepancies in loss runs before they go to the broker, or notice a missing endorsement on a policy. When you find a problem, you won't just report it
  • you'll usually come with an idea of how to sort it, or at least a clear explanation of what's gone wrong. This isn't about solving every big strategic problem, but about tackling the day-to-day snags.
Stakeholder Communication & Support
How effectively you communicate with internal business units, brokers, and TPAs, providing clear information and support.
  • Business units will tell us you're helpful and easy to work with when they have insurance queries. Brokers will confirm you provide clear, timely information. Your emails will be concise and easy to understand, even when explaining complex insurance jargon. You'll be seen as a helpful resource, not just someone who processes requests.

5Would you like it

The honest version. What people enjoy, and what grinds them down.

What people enjoy
Making a Tangible Impact Through Accuracy

You'll get a real kick out of knowing that your meticulous data entry and careful policy reviews directly contribute to the company's protection and financial health. Seeing a complex claim resolved smoothly because you laid the groundwork will be genuinely satisfying.

Successfully reconciling a complex premium invoice to the penny, knowing that any discrepancy could have cost the company thousands, will feel like a win.

Being the Go-To Expert for a Critical Function

You'll enjoy becoming the person internal teams turn to for their insurance questions, knowing you can provide reliable answers or point them in the right direction. Building that internal reputation as the 'insurance person' is a big motivator.

Answering a tricky COI request from a sales director, explaining the nuances, and getting them exactly what they need, will make you feel valued.

Working in a Stable, Process-Driven Environment

If you thrive on clear procedures, checklists, and a structured approach to work, you'll find this role very comfortable. You'll appreciate having established ways of doing things and the satisfaction of executing them perfectly.

Methodically working through a renewal checklist, ticking off each item as it's completed, and seeing the progress towards a major deadline.

What frustrates people
  • The Quarterly Exposure Chase: That relentless, soul-crushing task of hounding 100+ contacts across the globe to submit their updated revenue, payroll, and property values, often receiving messy or incomplete data right at the deadline.
  • Last-Minute Broker Binders: Receiving the 300-page renewal binder from the broker at 4 PM the day before the policy expires, forcing you to frantically scan for errors in wording or limits.
  • The 'Impossible' COI Request: Explaining to a senior sales director for the fifth time that you cannot, under any circumstances, name their client's landlord as an Additional Insured on the company's global liability policy for a 2-day event.
  • Manual Data Hell: Spending hours manually keying in premium invoice data from 15 different international carriers because none of them can provide a simple electronic file.
  • Being the Bearer of Bad News: Having to explain to the CFO that liability premiums are increasing 40% this year due to a hard market, even though the company had zero claims.
  • 'Just a Quick Question': The constant stream of interruptions from people across the company who treat you as the corporate insurance helpdesk, derailing your focus on critical renewal preparations.
What this role does not give you
  • Rapid career progression to management (it's a solid mid-level role, but advancement is typically incremental).
  • High-level strategic decision-making (you'll support it, but not lead it).
  • A 'blank canvas' environment (there are established processes you'll need to follow).
  • Minimal interaction with internal stakeholders (you'll be chasing people often).

6Who you work with

This role directly impacts the company's financial stability by ensuring robust insurance coverage and efficient claims management. Your work helps us avoid uninsured losses, supports compliance with global regulations, and contributes to an accurate understanding of our Total Cost of Risk (TCOR). Get it right, and we save money and protect our assets; get it wrong, and we could be looking at significant financial exposure or operational disruption.

Inside the business
  • Senior Global Insurance Administrator (your direct manager)
  • Finance Leadership (for reporting and data needs)
  • Legal Team (for contractual reviews and compliance)
  • HR and Payroll (for exposure data like headcount and salaries)
  • Operations and Business Unit Leads (for property values, fleet data, and incident reporting)
Outside the business
  • Insurance Brokers (our main point of contact for policies and claims)
  • Insurance Carriers (the actual insurers, sometimes directly)
  • Third-Party Administrators (TPAs) (who manage our claims)
  • External Auditors (who check our insurance records)

7What you need before you start

Not a wish list. The things you would be expected to already have.

  • At least 2-3 years of experience in an administrative or coordinator role within a finance, insurance, or risk management department, or a similar highly regulated environment.
  • Demonstrable experience with data entry, data validation, and maintaining accurate records in a professional setting.
  • Proven ability to manage multiple tasks and deadlines in a fast-paced environment, ideally with experience coordinating information from various internal and external parties.
  • Strong working knowledge of Microsoft Excel (VLOOKUPs, PivotTables are a must) and general proficiency with Microsoft Office Suite (Word, Outlook, PowerPoint).
  • Excellent written and verbal communication skills in English, with the ability to explain information clearly and concisely to non-experts.

8What to practise next

Where the job is going, and what to do about it starting this week.

Advanced RMIS Configuration & Reporting

Within 12-18 months, you'll move beyond just data entry and pre-built reports. We'll need you to understand how to configure custom fields, build more complex data import templates, and even start designing your own basic reports within our RMIS. This will give you more autonomy and reduce reliance on external consultants.

Custom field creation and linking · Report builder functionality · Data import template design · User access management basics

  • Month 1: Ask your Senior Administrator to walk you through how custom fields are set up in Origami Risk.
  • Month 3: Volunteer to take on a task that involves cleaning up existing RMIS data, which will give you a deeper understanding of its structure.
  • Month 6: Take any available online training modules provided by our RMIS vendor on advanced user functions or report building.
  • Month 9: Propose one new, simple report you could build in the RMIS to help track a specific metric.

Quick win: Spend 30 minutes each week exploring different menus and features within the RMIS that you don't currently use. Just poke around and see what's there.

Power Query for Excel (Data Transformation)

Within 6-12 months, simply using VLOOKUPs won't be enough. You'll need to master Power Query within Excel to efficiently cleanse, transform, and combine messy data from various sources (like multiple loss runs or exposure spreadsheets). This will drastically reduce the time you spend on manual data manipulation.

Connecting to different data sources · Data cleansing steps (remove duplicates, split columns) · Merging and appending queries · Transforming data types

  • This month: Watch a few YouTube tutorials on 'Excel Power Query basics'—there are loads of great free resources.
  • Month 2: Identify one recurring, manual data cleaning task you do in Excel and try to automate it using Power Query.
  • Month 3: Work with your Senior Administrator to apply Power Query to a real-world exposure data consolidation task.
  • Month 4: Share your Power Query knowledge with a colleague, explaining how it saved you time.

Quick win: Next time you're cleaning a spreadsheet, look for the 'Data' tab in Excel and explore the 'Get & Transform Data' section. It's right there, waiting for you.

9Staying current once you are in

What people here do to keep up
  • Attend industry webinars and seminars on emerging risks or insurance market trends (e.g., from brokers, CII, or Airmic).
  • Participate in internal training sessions on new systems or processes within Finance.
  • Seek out opportunities to shadow colleagues in other Finance functions to understand their needs and how insurance impacts them.
  • Engage with our brokers' client service teams to learn more about specific policy lines or market dynamics.

The ten Future Fluencies

Zavmo analysis

The credential is what you can do today. These are what keep you valuable.

A qualification proves you can do the job as it's defined today. These ten are what decide whether you're still the obvious person for it in five years. They're the capabilities employers are now writing into senior roles faster than people are learning them. Zavmo weaves them through whatever you study, so you come out with both: the credential and the fluency.

The highlighted ones are the Fluencies your role leans on hardest, from how Global Insurance Administrator is actually changing. In about two minutes, the free confidence check asks where you stand on each of the ten. That's the whole check, and it's what makes the plan yours rather than generic.

12The team that's yours

No two people are taught the same way. This is one-to-one, not one-to-many.

Zavmo is a hyper-personalised AI learning platform. Twelve virtual tutors, each with a different way of teaching, and one orchestration agent that picks the right one for the moment. So every single lesson is shaped around you, your role, and the way you learn. Not a course everyone sits through. A conversation built for you, and no one else.

…and nine more, matched to you after your first chat. Meet all twelve

13What it feels like

A conversation, not a course

Because your tutor knows your role, your projects and your last session, learning sounds like this. And it's different for every single person:

A course is written once and handed to everyone. This is assembled around you, and keeps changing as it learns you. Five things it reads, and what each one changes.

  1. Your actual work Every lesson is taught against a live piece of your own work, not a worked example from a textbook.
  2. What you already know The first conversation finds your starting point, so you skip what you can already do and spend the time on what you cannot.
  3. The conditions you learn under Not a learning-styles quiz. The evidence does not support those. The dimensions the research does back, read once and used to shape the plan.
  4. How far you got last time It picks up mid-thought. The tutor knows what you said, what you struggled with, and what it asked you to try.
  5. Which tutor suits the moment Twelve of them, each for a different kind of thinking. The one who walks you through a first idea is not the one who stress-tests it.

Working with AI on the job

Working with AI

Where AI is starting to help

Let's be real, a lot of insurance administration involves repetitive tasks, digging through documents, and chasing data. What if you could cut down on that busywork and focus on the more interesting, impactful stuff? That's where AI comes in. We're building an AI Productivity Hub specifically for Finance roles, and it's designed to give you back valuable time.

Imagine having an intelligent assistant that handles the grunt work, leaving you free to focus on validation, problem-solving, and stakeholder management. For a Global Insurance Administrator, this means less time on manual data entry and more time ensuring our programmes are robust. Here's a glimpse of how AI could change your day-to-day:

Policy & Invoice OCR Automation

Use AI-powered Optical Character Recognition (OCR) to automatically extract key data points (like policy numbers, limits, premiums, and dates) from those dense PDF binders, endorsements, and invoices. This data then directly populates our RMIS, cutting down on hours of manual keying, especially during those hectic renewal and invoicing cycles.

Predictive Claims Analysis

Leverage AI tools to analyse historical loss runs and identify non-obvious trends. For example, the AI might flag a specific location that has a surprisingly high frequency of minor auto claims. This insight can help us target proactive loss control interventions, potentially saving us money down the line and giving you more time for strategic thinking.

Contractual Risk Review

Imagine using an AI assistant to perform a first-pass review of the insurance requirement sections in client or vendor contracts. The AI can quickly flag non-standard or high-risk clauses (like unusual waiver of subrogation demands) for your review, saving you 30-60 minutes per contract and speeding up our sales and procurement cycles. It's like having an extra pair of expert eyes.

Broker Request Triage & Drafting

Employ AI to draft initial responses to routine broker inquiries and data requests. For example, if a broker asks for 'updated property values for the Q3 renewal submission,' the AI can pull the relevant data, format it into an email, and prepare it for your quick human review and send. This could free up 4-6 hours a month, letting you focus on more complex analysis.

The honest bit

You’ve started things before

Most of them were built for a room full of people who aren’t you. A cohort moves on whether or not your week allowed it, and by the third week the thing you’re behind on becomes the reason you stop opening it.

There’s no cohort here, and no timetable to fall behind. Before anything starts, Zavmo asks when you’re sharpest and how long you can realistically sit down for, then builds the sessions around those answers. A bad fortnight changes your pace. It doesn’t put you behind.

And you only pay once you start learning. Searching and planning are free, and you can cancel any time — so the cost of finding out is an afternoon, not a year.

What it costs

Less than one coaching session. Every month.

A single career-coaching hour costs more than a month of this, and it ends when the hour does. Zavmo doesn't. It's £70 a month, about £2.30 a day, for a companion that knows a Global Insurance Administrator, works on the job you actually do, and keeps going at your pace rather than a timetable's.

  • Searching and planning stay free. You only pay when you start learning.
  • Your credits are yours. Regulated, and they don't vanish when a subscription ends.
  • Cancel any time and billing stops. No notice period, no minimum term.

Your path, personalised

You have the map. Walking it is the part we do together.

This route runs to 14 national skill standards. That is a real journey.

Zavmo shapes a learning experience as unique as you are. It fits how you learn, your pace and the work you already do. Every step stays benchmarked to recognised national standards. That’s the plan for becoming a Global Insurance Administrator: personal to you, and it still counts. The first steps are free.

Independent research finds well-designed intelligent tutoring performs nearly as well as one-to-one human tutoring: VanLehn (2011), Educational Psychologist.

15Where to go from here

Other roles at Level 2

Same depth of qualification, different job. Useful if the work appeals but this particular role does not.

Other roles in Finance roles

Stay in the field you know and move sideways rather than up.

If you leave this industry

The skills you'll build here—meticulous data management, process ownership, stakeholder coordination, and a deep understanding of insurance principles—are highly transferable. You could move into broader Finance operations, risk management roles in other industries, or even transition to the broker or carrier side of the insurance industry, perhaps as an Account Handler or Underwriting Assistant.

Not sure this is the right direction?
