Organisation is in my blood and I love structured work. So as an apprentice for insurance in the office, I find myself well suited here.

My experience

Ich bin total im Außendienst-Modus! Ich liebe es, mit Kunden zu reden und ihnen zu helfen. Da geht mein Herz auf und ich bin in meinem Element.

Difference between field service and office service

In the back office, you settle insurance claims, check benefits and keep in touch with our customers by e-mail and telephone. In the field service, you visit business partners on site. You analyse their individual insurance needs and advise them. In the field, you have more customer contact than in the office.
