Business Support Recruitment Officer
What areas do you look after?
I currently support Tech Recruitment.
Tell us about you and your Admiral story?
I joined Admiral in February 2012 as a Sales Executive and quickly grew fond of Admiral and its culture. It was clear there were many opportunities and different career paths. I moved over to our Claims function in 2014 as a Case Handler and from there I moved into Claims Underwriting, which lead to an opportunity to work in our IT department in a semi-technical role. I gained valuable insight into a side of the business that I never thought would have been possible. The time was then right to move into our People Services department where I have been since November 2018.
Why would you recommend Admiral?
I really could go on and on as there are so many reasons for me but if I had to pinpoint two, it would be the people and the opportunity for self-development and career growth.
