Fraud Investigators Wanted - General Insurance Investigations - Adelaide SA. Sub contracting - Ref IR1144

Rates depend on experience.  

Our client is a niche investigation agency based in Sydney, who are seeking to expand their service provision to Victoria and South Australia to meet demands for their services from existing clients. They have vacancy’s in Adelaide for experienced factual investigators to undertake high quality investigation work, with a focus on suspected fraudulent claims.   

Investigations will be delivered to a select group of companies who expect a complete investigation brief and the performance of an investigation tailored to the specific facts of the matter at hand. They will not accept a standardized, ‘one-size fits all’ approach to an investigation, and seek investigators with an ability to think outside the box.

Tasks the investigator is expected to undertake:  

• Strategic Investigation planning – tailored to the circumstances of each individual matter, not a one size fits all approach

• Interview preparation outside of using a standardized template

• Identify and obtain all relevant documents from insured’s and other parties

• Identify, locate and interview relevant witnesses

• Audio recorded interviews

• Preparation of detailed investigation brief examining the evidence and identifying issues of credit motive and opportunity

• Communicate with insured customers verbally and in writing

• Liaise with claims co-ordinators to discuss strategies and recommendations for further enquiries

• Keep detailed and accurate investigation notes

• Responsibility for case managing the investigation from allocation to completion

The successful candidates will have:  

• Excellent interviewing skills – able to probe and challenge contradictions, ask the hard questions and qualify responses

• Ability to critically analyse evidence

• Ability to think independently and identify relevant enquiries

• Excellent written and verbal communication skills (as they will be dealing with Insureds and with clients)

• Time management skills

• Experience in conducting general insurance fraud investigations – eg motor vehicle theft, staged collisions

• A desire for continuous development of their skills and knowledge about conducting effective fraud investigations.

• Professionalism and maturity!

The successful candidates will be familiar with the legislation that directs investigations and preference will be given to those applicants that have knowledge of the basics of the Insurance Contracts Act and Privacy Act.  

The successful candidate must be fully licensed compliant with the requirements of their state.

Applicants must have basic equipment and insurance and must have access to a functioning office. Equipment will include:  

• Reliable transport

• Digital audio recorder

• Laptop useful

• Digital camera

• PC / internet/email access

• Workers compensation insurance

END - These positions were listed 5th February 2010 and will be open until further notice.
