Job description
At Hastings Direct, we are transforming the way we manage our claims. We want to make what can be an upsetting and stressful time for customers (and colleagues) more straightforward.
To support this, we have been creating a brand new team of Delivery Managers who will lead high impact, high value change projects into and alongside a busy Claims Operation. We are now expanding this team even further and therefore we want people to join us that have experience and passion for delivering brilliant, people-centred change.
This role can be based locally to any of our offices (Leicester, London or Bexhill) with a hybrid approach to working. However, for the right person, we are also able to offer this role as a permanent homeworking opportunity.

What are we looking for?
As one of our Delivery Managers, this role is critical to our delivery and success. It will be exciting, busy, varied and challenging so a roll your sleeves up, hands on approach is a must! We’re looking for someone with a tenacious approach to getting things done.
