This resource was paid for by a contributing third party.

Claims Apprentice is back! After a gruelling interview process, we can now meet the final six candidates, all competing for the prize of becoming the 2023 champion.

In the first episode, we meet the talented sextet as they discuss why they decided to take part in Claims Apprentice, what they are looking to get out of the process, and the skills they hope to display that might help them be successful.

Claire Mulligan, sponsor Kennedys’ own Sir Alan Sugar, also explains why the law firm continues to support the series and what she is looking for in the eventual winner.

Once they have met each other for the first time, our final six – Ellie Rose Arch from Allianz Global Corporate & Specialty, Alasdair Bain from Aviva, Bazzil Boyce from North P&I, Alan DaBreo from HDI Global Specialty SE, Safa Saeed from Zurich and Rebecca Wonnacott from Admiral – are placed into teams and set their first task: to come up with a name for their respective trios.

Watch the first episode, and see who is shaping up to be the successor to previous winners Verity Ross from Zurich [2019], Kelly Huddlestone from Covéa [2020] and Lewis Cunningham from RSA [2022].
