About the role | Mō te tūranga mahi

As a Resolution Specialist, you will work in partnership with the customer and our internal colleagues to implement the best solution to restore the relationship while acting in accordance with the legislation. In some instances, this may include issuing decisions under the ACC Code of Claimant Rights, engaging with alternative dispute resolution and mediation practices and working with advocacy services.

You will identify if early resolution is possible with clients & advocates, getting to the core of their conflict with ACC.
