Issuing, maintaining and renewing of commercial policies.

I am currently working under commercial lines where I issue,maintain and renew policy. With all these task I am expected to make a target of at least 25 polices a day. The work is not straightforward as you have to seek other missing information from brokers in order to complete the request. The exiting part about the work is discussing with co workers about the work, which helped in improving the quality of the work. The most challenge was the target. As much as policies are different we were expected to reach the target regardless of the policy size.

Pros: Santam is one of the biggest short term insurance company. It gives lot of exposure in insurance industry. Is a very diverse company.
Cons: none

Excellent learning curve

working for my company, it can be challenging in a sense that our main object is to deliver good and proper customer service and any under circumstances in dealing with most difficult client and to the most jolliest person at the end of the day is meeting customer satisfaction and drive to go an extra mile in making the client happy. my typical work day is doing what is expected from and try to enjoy at as changeling as it can be. i get along with all my colleagues, even under dispute i try to maintain peace at all time, i have learnt that i don't have to be offended with everything that is said to me, be it my colleagues or the clients i deal with everyday, meeting the customer's expectations. the most difficult thing about my job is dealing with customers that do have no respect for other people and i still need to deliver an excellent service despite the harsh treatment.

Pros: to extend my customer service as it is a day to day need
Cons: going an extra mile if need come to be

Review

I have been working at Santam for along time. It I a very good company but not in the department I have for. Things change on the regular which I don't mind, but mostly lateral moves are made with in the department with no salary increases as different work is being done. I am a bit tired of my surroundings and in need of some change of scenery. I want to meet new people and work well with them. Basically I need a new work family who appreciates me as I would them.

Pros: Great company to work for
Cons: Just not the best department I worked in
