Operations salaries →At Zego, we're on a mission to do the good thing, not the insurance thing.
Insurance hasn't changed much in over a century. The way we live, work and travel has. We're building the real-time, AI-driven infrastructure that powers innovative insurance, so good drivers get cover that works the way they actually drive.
We're not just updating insurance; We're leading the AI evolution in insurance 🤖
For us, AI isn't a line on a roadmap or a buzzword on a slide. It's our operating reality, and it's how we build products that back drivers instead of the old insurance playbook.
We don't do things slowly, and we don't do bureaucracy. We back high-performance builders who want ownership, early responsibility and the chance to do the most career-defining work of their lives. You'll get the space to try things, the tools to move fast, and the room to see your ideas reach millions of drivers.
Do not take our word for it. Read what Zegons say about us on Glassdoor.
If you're ready to build the future of insurance, we're hiring.
Claims complaints at an insurer are where things get real — the customer is already in distress, the stakes are higher, and poor handling has direct regulatory consequences.
As Team Leader for Claims Complaints, you'll own the day-to-day running of a team of case handlers, balancing hands-on case work with genuine people leadership. You'll ensure complaints are investigated thoroughly, resolved fairly, and handled in line with DISP and Consumer Duty — and you'll be accountable for the standard your team sets.
You'll report to the Complaints Manager and work closely with the Customer Support & FOS Team Leader to keep standards consistent across the wider function.

Essential

Working knowledge of DISP and Consumer Duty as they apply to complaint handling.

You work AI-first. You will use AI daily here, and we mean daily. You do not need to be an expert, but you do need to arrive curious, experiment fast, and take ownership of getting good quickly. People who wait to be trained will find this uncomfortable.

Experience of ShareDo, Snowflake, or Looker, or equivalent case management and MI tools.
Teams work better with time to collaborate and space to get things done. We call it Zego Hybrid: some of us are in our office (central London or Halifax) weekly, others monthly or quarterly. It's about finding the balance between face time and focus that produces great work and a healthy life around it.
We also make a point of getting everyone in the same room. Teams come together every quarter, and once a year the whole company does, properly. It's a serious investment and consistently one of the best parts of the year.
