Discussing the opportunities ahead, Faramarz shared:
“Three years ago, I wasn’t just offered a role as a Claims Manager at Honan, I was given a gift of being part of an A-grade and truly dynamic organisation. I’ve loved every day and that allows me to give back to Honan, which naturally flows through to Honan clients. To now be promoted within Honan, feels as though every day at work is special. I am so excited about the future and feel privileged to be working with such an excellent crew of advocates. Faramarz Ostowari – Head of CIRS Claims.
