But what I really do is help people on some of the worst days of their lives.When storms hit or fires break out, our phones ring.
I could be speaking to someone whose home is underwater, whose roof has collapsed, or who's just lost everything.
It's not easy, but it's real, human work that matters — because customer obsession is at the heart of everything we do.I joined Suncorp because I wanted to make a difference.
What I found was a role where I'm challenged every day, backed by a team who truly gets it, and supported by leaders who check in, especially after the tough calls.
What I Do as a Claims Manager
No two days are ever quite the same, but here's what you can expect : Listen, really listen : I speak with customers who are often overwhelmed or vulnerable.
I give them the space to be truly heard, because customer obsession starts with understanding.
Be a calm, steady guide : I walk them through what's covered in their policy, what will happen next, and make the complex feel simple.
Balance heart with policy : I make fair, transparent decisions that respect both the customer's situation and our guidelines.
Keep things moving : I manage my own portfolio of claims end-to-end, making timely decisions and keeping things moving, especially during busy times.
Solve problems : Every customer's situation is different.
I think critically and creatively to find the best way forward, especially when things don't go to plan.
Stay on top of the detail : I document everything accurately — it's how we stay accountable and ensure customers feel confident in the process.
Lean on your team : Some calls are challenging, but I'm part of a supportive group who debrief together, check in, and keep things human.
