Job description

In Australia and New Zealand, Hannover Re is a major player in the Life & Health reinsurance market. Locally, we combine the agility of a small, nimble team with the financial strength and global reach of one of the world’s largest reinsurers.

We currently have an exciting opportunity for a Claims Assessor to join our Life & Health Subsidiary in Sydney.

Reporting directly to the Claims Assessment Manager this permanent role will be responsible for ensuring that all claims are promptly assessed in line with the terms and conditions of the relevant insurance contract.

You can look forward to

  • Managing Group and Retail life insurance claims portfolios across a range of claim types.
  • Assessing claims in line with policy terms, regulatory requirements and service standards.
  • Responding to claim reviews and participating in discussions on complex cases.
  • Liaising with internal and external stakeholders throughout the claims assessment process.
  • Contributing to projects, process improvements and ongoing business initiatives.
  • Supporting strong risk management, compliance and governance practices.
  • Maintaining business processes and documentation.
  • Collaborating across claims, medical and operational teams to deliver positive customer outcomes.

You come equipped with

  • At least 3 years' technical knowledge of direct and/or group life insurance.
  • Experience applying insurance legislation and regulatory requirements, including LICOP and RG271.
  • Advanced Excel skills.
  • Experience using AI-enabled tools in a regulated environment.
  • Strong analytical and problem-solving skills.
  • Excellent organisational skills and attention to detail.
  • Clear written and verbal communication skills.
  • The ability to work independently and collaboratively.
  • Professional integrity, sound judgement and a commitment to confidentiality.
  • ANZIIF and/or ALUCA qualifications (desirable).

You Will Stand Out If You Are

  • Technology-loving – you embrace systems, automation, and data-driven decision making
  • Naturally curious – always asking “how can we do this better?”
  • Process-oriented – with a strong focus on continuous improvement
  • Trusted and grounded – you build credibility through consistency, discretion, and integrity
  • Mature and balanced – able to exercise sound judgement and handle sensitive matters
  • People-centric – approachable, empathetic, and able to build strong relationships across all levels
  • Self-driven – able to prioritise effectively and work with minimal supervision
  • Attention to detail orientated – you see the things others miss and have an eye for numbers and effective use of language

Applicants must have unrestricted permanent rights to work in Australia (Australian citizenship or permanent residency only).
