Agents Typically Work for;

• Instruction Agencies

On qualification you will be provided with a list of agencies (currently 25) who recruit our qualified students. Fees for any instruction work carried out for agencies are a set fee and are paid a month in arrears. Generally most instruction work can take anywhere from 30mins to 3 hours and fees are in the region of £25 to £110. On average £55 to £100.

• Claimant Lawyers

You are not part of an exclusivity deal when it comes to agencies and you can carry out work for solicitors directly who pay a set fee or provide work where you can charge on an hourly basis.

• Insurance Companies

Insurance claims investigation is usually paid as a set fee per task and payment is usually a month in arrears. Fees vary wildly dependant on case.

• Small to Medium Enterprises (SMEs) carrying out workplace investigation

Carrying out site inspections for businesses who want to audit their own in house health and safety depts, or insurers who want to monitor insured employers compliance can bring fees up to £250 in some instances.

• Employers who have work vehicles

Working as a consultant/investigator for Manorr there is an opportunity to earn residual income from customers of Manorr, further you can earn additional sums as a consultant/investigator. Money is paid to you every year that a customer remains in their contract. Typically an average customer can earn you £180 per annum plus £250 per annum consultancy and up to £400 per annum for instruction work. The optimum amount of customers you could be servicing could be as many as 200 per annum. The 2 day course is free of charge to investigators trained by Amalgam Training.

• Referral work for personal injury claims

We are registered with the Ministry of Justice and are regulated for claims management activities, this means we can pay you referral fees of £200 per qualified referral and an additional £200 for the instruction fee.

All of these tasks and earning opportunities you will learn by attending our training course.

Your earnings potential is directly linked to the quality of your work and the ability to be able to serve your clients well. Most of the investigators work for between 7 & 9 different organisations. On average the earnings are circa 35k if you work for an average working week.

Ultimately, every single day is different, you will be making decisions that will affect peoples lives, some in a positive way, because your investigation has led to them receiving compensation for their injuries, some not so positive because as a result of your investigation a fraudulent claim has not proceeded.
