The application process
We understand that a lengthy recruitment process can be frustrating, so we’ve kept things simple with a three-stage application process. Our goal is to give you an outcome within weeks, not months.
Once you submit your application, it will be reviewed by a member of the team. If successful, you’ll be invited to a short telephone interview. If you progress from there, the final stage is a meet and greet at our office.
During this session, you’ll experience our culture first-hand, learn more about the role of a New Business Sales Executive, and complete a final face-to-face interview.

Please complete each application question in full. The minimum word count is there to help you provide enough detail for us to fairly assess your experience and suitability for the role. Responses that don’t contain sufficient information may not be able to progress through the assessment process.

Talent Specialist - Claims, Ops & Non-Motor
What areas do you look after?
I am a Candidate Engagement Consultant recruiting for our Claims, Ops & Non-Motor areas.
Tell us about you and your Admiral story?
I joined Admiral back in 2017, I just finished college and had no idea what I wanted to do. But after a short amount of time in the company, I knew this was somewhere I would fit right in and could build a career. I started off as a Motor Claims Handler in our Third Party department. After 1 year of handling, I progressed quite quickly and became a Senior Handler. After 4 years in that position, I moved over to the Accidental Loss department as a Team Manager. I have thoroughly enjoyed my time in our Motor Claims department and after 7 years working there, I decided to take on a new challenge and join the Recruitment Team helping others start their careers.
Why would you recommend Admiral?
Admiral is known for how well the staff are treated, the amazing benefits we receive, and the overall culture and family feel it gives. I can honestly say I have never worked in a company as unique and special as this. I have never felt so valued not just as a member of staff, but as an individual. I love how opportunities are always open for you to progress and achieve, no matter your length of service or your position.
Guidance for using AI during the hiring process
We welcome you to use AI tools to support your application if you choose. Your use of AI won’t affect how you are assessed. However, if you do decide to use it, we encourage you to use it thoughtfully and effectively.
