Working as a claims handler in France
Claims handling is not a regulated profession in France. Most handlers have a law degree (licence or master's in insurance law), a BTS Assurance, or a technical background for specialised branches such as construction or motor. Knowledge of French insurance law and inter-insurer conventions is learned on the job, and written French is essential because decisions are sent in writing. Insurers, mutuals, brokers and claims management companies all recruit. Search for "gestionnaire sinistres", "chargé d'indemnisation", "régleur sinistres", "gestionnaire sinistres IARD" or "gestionnaire sinistres construction".
