Young Claims Professionals Group Launched By The CILA
31/01/2012
The Chartered Institute of Loss Adjuster (CILA) has recently launched a special interest group for young adjusting and claims personnel, in a bid to give young professionals a greater say in how the industry is managed and to encourage new, young talent to join.
Called Future Focus, this group of 14 CILA members will represent younger CILA members at Council, encourage participation and involvement in the profession, act as a sounding board and promote the adjusting and claims profession outside of the industry.
Similar to the CILA’s other interest groups, members of Future Focus come from a cross section of businesses including adjusting firms, insurers and brokers. So far, the group has elected a Chair, Andrew Considine from Merlin and agreed objectives for 2012.
Malcolm Hyde, CILA executive director said: “We are delighted to launch our new Future Focus group and look forward to hearing the views of our younger members.
“For new and young claims professionals, there hasn’t been a dedicated CILA group representing their views and needs – so Future Focus will go some way to rectify this situation. Hopefully, the new group will encourage more young talent into the industry and help existing young members to capitalise on the opportunities available to them including the CILA’s new suite of exams.
“Our new group, together with Post Magazine’s Adjusting Academy that was launched last year, should help change and shape an industry that offers tremendous opportunities to young, talented professionals. “
Andrew Considine from Merlin said: “I feel privileged to have been elected as chairman of this new and exciting group, and look forward to addressing some of the key issues and challenges facing our industry. This is a great opportunity to work alongside some of the industry’s brightest talents to implement meaningful changes and promote what the adjusting/claims profession can offer the new generation of insurance professionals.”
