Raylene Ryan
@rayleneryan
I manage complex insurance claims, risk processes, compliance, and high-volume client portfolios.
What I'm looking for
I've managed complex corporate, commercial, personal, motor and non-motor insurance claims across more than 20 years in the industry.
At FirstRand, I managed substantial corporate claims portfolios for 15 years, coordinating investigations, assessments, settlements and insurer negotiations while maintaining bordereaux, audit documentation and compliance records.
As Risk Insurance Manager at FirstRand and Claims Team Leader at AAA Claims Management, I monitored claims performance and risk exposure, improved workflow efficiency, coached staff and resolved escalated claims matters.
Most recently, I've supported end-to-end claims administration at DG Capital and delivered high-volume customer service, account administration and FICA-compliant documentation at HelloPay.
