Merlin is delighted to be announced as the ‘Claims Management Team of the Year’ at the Insurance Times UK Claims Excellence Awards ceremony in London last night.
Merlin’s Subsidence team, entered the award for their fresh and innovative approach to handling Subsidence Claims, and were successful over stiff competition from five other finalists.
The Merlin TMCS Subsidence model was sponsored through development by Chief Technical Officer, Kevin Wood, who along with Subsidence Claims Manager, Dave Clare presented the model to a judging panel last month, which was welcomed with overwhelmingly positive feedback.
Kevin Wood said of the win “our Subsidence Hub and Avalon are really turning heads in the market, and this award proves even further that we are truly providing something new, innovative and better than anything else available in the market today.”
The ceremony was also attended by Client Development Director, Alex Kilpatrick and Head of Subsidence, Mike Dupelycz. Mike commented “The Hub team has embraced the changes made with vigour and enthusiasm, making the product the success it is today. This win is a testament to their hard work and commitment to making a difference in the Subsidence market.”
Opening the evening Insurance Times publishing director Shân Millie said: "There is a well-known saying that you can tell a lot about someone by the company they keep – take a good look around you. I’m sure you will agree that the company you are keeping tonight is the cream of the UKGI Claims ‘crop’ for 2011. Anyone who’s ever entered an Insurance Times Award knows just how strict a process we follow, and how hard it is to become a finalist. As individuals, teams and organisations, you’ve already achieved so much. Congratulations to you all."
