Sr. Claims Specialist, General Liability
or drop it. Probably we can include location list in schedule section. We need sections: About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule. We need to decide what goes where. About the role: overview of role, team, purpose. Could include "Zurich is seeking an individual interested in growing their claims career with our Commercial General Liability Team." plus "As a Senior Claims Specialist, you will work with a team of claims professionals..." maybe that's responsibilities. But we can put overview in About the role. Responsibilities: list of duties: handling multi-party commercial line claims, collaborating with internal/external points, learning protocols, etc. Requirements: maybe basic qualifications? Or we could separate Requirements (basic) and Qualifications (preferred). But spec says we can have Requirements and Qualifications sections. We'll put basic qualifications under Requirements, and preferred qualifications under Qualifications (or Skills). However they also have Skills list within preferred qualifications. We could put Skills section for skills like negotiation, analytical, communication, etc. But we can also put them under Qualifications. We need to avoid thin sections. Let's think: we have basic qualifications (list of education/experience combos). That's substantive. Preferred qualifications list (experience, litigation management, etc.) also substantive. Skills list also substantive (relationship-building, negotiation strategies, etc.). Could combine preferred qualifications and skills into one Qualifications section, but we might split: Requirements = basic qualifications, Qualifications = preferred qualifications + skills. Or we could have Requirements = basic qualifications, Skills = skills list, and Qualifications = preferred qualifications. But we need to avoid thin sections; each should have substantive content. We have enough content for each: Requirements (basic qualifications) is a list of options; Qualifications (preferred qualifications) is a list; Skills (skills list) is another list; Benefits (we have a sentence about competitive pay and comprehensive benefits); Pay (salary range and bonus); Schedule (hybrid work model, locations, occasional in-office). About the role (overview). Responsibilities (duties). That seems fine. We must not include sections with filler like "commensurate with experience". We have actual content. Now we need to output HTML fragment only, no /. Use
for section headings. Use - for any list of duties/requirements/benefits. Use
for prose.
We must preserve all substantive information; do not invent or summarize away detail.
Let's extract details precisely.
About the role: Could combine first paragraph and "Why Zurich?" paragraph (growth, inclusion, supportive environment, leader in risk management, 150 years expertise, etc.) Also mention "As a Senior Claims Specialist, you will work with a team of claims professionals with diverse experiences and backgrounds." That's more responsibilities but could be part of role overview. However we might keep that in Responsibilities. Let's decide.
Better: About the role: short description: "Zurich is seeking an individual interested in growing their claims career with our Commercial General Liability Team." plus maybe "At Zurich North America Claims we acknowledge that work life-balance and flexibility are a priority..." but that's schedule. We'll keep schedule separate.
Thus About the role: maybe just the first sentence plus "As a Senior Claims Specialist, you will work with a team of claims professionals with diverse experiences and backgrounds." That seems role-specific.
But we also have "Why Zurich?" paragraph: "At Zurich, we value your ideas and experience. We offer growth, inclusion, and a supportive environment—so you can help shape the future of insurance. Zurich North America is a leader in risk management, with over 150 years of expertise and coverage across 25+ industries, including 90% of the Fortune 500®. Join us for a brighter future—for yourself and our customers." That's also about the role/company. Could be included in About the role.
We'll include that.
Now Responsibilities: list of duties:
- Handle multi-party commercial line claims of moderate to high exposure and complexity within specific authority limits, to ensure that claims are handled in the most efficient, effective way while delivering a customer-centric claims service.
- Collaborate and develop partnerships with internal and external points of contact including customers, vendors, suppliers, and brokers to provide a quality claims experience.
- Learn and develop knowledge of established protocols and industry best practices to ensure that claims are handled in the most efficient, effective way while delivering a quality customer-centric claims service.
We could also include "As a Senior Claims Specialist, you will work with a team of claims professionals with diverse experiences and backgrounds." but that's more about environment; maybe keep in About the role.
We'll keep responsibilities as above.
Now Requirements (basic qualifications): list:
- Juris Doctor with 2+ years of experience in Claims and/or Litigation Management
- Bachelor’s Degree with 6+ years of experience in Claims and/or Litigation Management
- High School Diploma Equivalent with 8+ years of experience in Claims and/or Litigation Management
- Zurich Certified Insurance Apprentice with an Associate Degree and 6+ years of experience in Claims and/or Litigation Management
- Completion of Zurich Claims Training Program and 6+ years of experience in Claims and/or Litigation Management
- Must obtain and maintain required adjuster license(s)
- Proficiency in Microsoft Office
- Knowledge of insurance regulations, markets, and products
We need to preserve exactly as written. Note there is a typo "ORBachelor’s" but we keep as is? The original: "Basic Qualifications: Juris Doctor with 2+ years of experience in Claims and/or Litigation Management ORBachelor’s Degree with 6+ years of experience in Claims and/or Litigation Management ORHigh School Diploma Equivalent with 8+ years of experience in Claims and/or Litigation Management ORZurich Certified Insurance Apprentice with an Associate Degree and 6+ years of experience in Claims and/or Litigation Management ORCompletion of Zurich Claims Training Program and 6+ years of experience in Claims and/or Litigation Management". There's missing spaces before OR. We should preserve the text as is? The instruction: preserve ALL substantive information; do NOT invent or summarize away detail. So we should keep the exact wording, but we can format as list items; we might need to add spaces for readability but that could be considered altering. Safer to keep the exact strings but we can split at "OR". However that would change the text. Better to keep as a single paragraph? But we need to use
- for any list of duties/requirements/benefits. So we need to make list items. We could keep each item as the phrase after "OR". But we need to ensure we don't lose the "OR" conjunction. Could we keep each item starting with the qualification and omit the "OR"? That would be summarizing? It's still the same info but missing the "OR". Might be considered altering. However the instruction says preserve ALL substantive information; the "OR" is not substantive; it's just a separator. So we can drop it. I think it's acceptable.
Thus each list item: "Juris Doctor with 2+ years of experience in Claims and/or Litigation Management", etc.
We'll also include "Must obtain and maintain required adjuster license(s)", "Proficiency in Microsoft Office", "Knowledge of insurance regulations, markets, and products".
Now Qualifications (preferred qualifications): list:
- 6+ years of experience in commercial general liability, Auto or Homeowner’s claims handling, including complex litigated and high severity injury claims
- 6+ years of litigation management experience
- Ability to work independently
- Active adjuster's license
- Strong relationship-building skills and ability to collaborate across work groups
- Familiarity with claims adjustment process and vendor utilization
- Understanding of financial and actuarial/reserving concepts
- Negotiation strategies expertise
- Strong strategic thinking and negotiation skills
- Organizational and time management abilities
- Customer service experience
- Strong analytical, critical thinking, and problem-solving skills
- Excellent verbal and written communication skills
We need to preserve exactly; note there is "Auto or Homeowner’s". Keep.
Now Skills: maybe we could treat the above as Skills, but we already used Qualifications for preferred qualifications. Could we combine? The instruction says prefer a few substantive sections over many thin ones. Having both Qualifications and Skills may be thin if they overlap. But we have enough content for each: Qualifications (preferred qualifications) includes experience, license, etc. Skills includes relationship-building, negotiation, analytical, communication, etc. Both are substantive.
Alternatively we could merge them into one "Qualifications and Skills" section. But the spec lists possible headings: Skills, Qualifications. We can choose to include both if they have substantive content. Let's keep both.
Now Benefits: we have "We offer competitive pay and comprehensive benefits for employees and their families. [Learn more about Total Rewards here.]" Also earlier: "Your pay at Zurich is based on your role, location, skills, and experience. We follow local laws to ensure fair compensation. You may also be eligible for bonuses and merit increases. If your expectations are above the listed range, we still encourage you to apply—your unique background matters to us. The pay range shown is a national average and may vary by location. The proposed Salary range for this position is $75,800.00 - $124,100.0
