Are you committed to bringing your best to life every day?

At Acenda, we draw on over 135 years of heritage to empower a brighter future with security and confidence.

Our values-driven business strives for high performance and growth as we look towards the future. As part of the global Nippon Life Group, we will enhance our capabilities and further strengthen our enduring commitment to putting customers at the heart of everything we do. And to support our partners to do the same.

We believe that when people have the support, clarity, and confidence they need, they can do their best work and build a future they’re proud of. We encourage our people to take life on – inside and outside of work – to grow and make a real impact for our customers, partners, and each other.

The Role

We have a permanent position available for a Case Consultant, Claims Excellence to join our team based in Melbourne, Sydney or our Brisbane. Working alongside other Case Consultants, you will manage a portfolio made up of both Retail and Group Claims. 

Reporting into the Lead, this role will join part of a newly created team and will act as an escalation point for complex claims. As an established Case Consultant, you will use your experience and knowledge to delve further into each claim. This could mean assessing claims more financially complex in nature as well as addressing complex policy decisions. 

With a generous salary package and participation in our short-term incentive program, you will start with a group of new work mates where your first 4 weeks will be spent in an interactive learning environment (face to face, virtual and online) understanding the foundational aspects of claims management.

Within your few months and partnered with a specialist, you will continue to learn on the job to build your knowledge and skills, getting more confident as you work toward your own delegated authority.

This role will serve as a fantastic pathway into Senior level Claims roles as you become more technical and experienced in the Claims approach.
