Alastair Dunn
@alastairdunn
Claims handler and SEO content writer delivering compassionate care and precise digital workflows.
What I'm looking for
I’m a highly organised, detail-oriented professional with a proven track record in delivering exceptional customer care and managing high-volume digital workflows. In a claims handling contact-centre environment, I served as the primary, public-facing point of contact for vulnerable customers, resolving intricate queries with clarity and compassion while managing demanding priorities.
My experience includes technical problem-solving and workflow logistics—investigating disruptions, updating records across internal databases, and liaising with third-party suppliers to ensure seamless continuity of care. I’ve also built strong writing and editorial skills as a freelance SEO content writer and editor, maintaining accuracy, brand consistency, and high-quality standards across content pipelines.
