Merlin Expands Special Investigation Unit


16/08/2011

We are today delighted to welcome Kay Hodgson to its Special Investigation Unit (SIU). Kay, who is an Accredited Counter Fraud Specialist (ACFS), will be responsible for the handling of claims within Yorkshire and the North Midlands.

Bringing years of valuable fraud detection experience to the role, Kay joins Merlin from her role as Counter Fraud Manager/investigator at Questgates. Kay also previously held a senior investigator position within the Teceris Corporate and Complex Adjusting Fraud team.

Kay will work alongside the rest of the Merlin SIU reporting to Tim Richardson, Head of Special Investigation (pictured), to enhance and build on the continued development of Merlin’s fraud investigation unit.

Tim commented: “We very much look forward to welcoming Kay to the team here at Merlin. Kay brings a wealth of highly relevant experience and expertise which will complement the expanding skill sets and expertise within the Merlin SIU team. Through the ongoing development of the SIU team, Merlin can better protect and serve our clients in the ongoing fight against fraudulent insurance claims.”

Kay Hodgson said “This is an exciting time to be joining a highly successful team with an expanding remit. I am looking forward to be working with Tim and the rest of the team to further develop the services we are able to provide to our clients.”
