German term

der Bereich Garantie

German to English Other Business/Commerce (general) Garantie
I am translating a letter in which a person introduces himself as someone who heads the "Bereich Garantie" of a company. The company offers a service whereby motor vehicle manufacturers are provided with an efficient and standardised processing of claims made on their vehicle warranties. I see from the internet that "Berecih Garantie" is often translated as "technical support" but this seems too general here-maybe "warranty support" ? His area of responsibility is in all aspects of helping motor vehicle manufacturers deal with warranty claims. The translation is a little tricky as the service being offered is unusual so there is no standard English translation to my knowledge.


This is the sentence:

"Bei der Firma** leite ich seit 2007 den Bereich Garantie"

Suggestions very welcome

FWIW Googling for for "head of the warranty" gives titles like head of the warranty department/division/section/program.

Warranty (Claims) Administrator

"I have been employed at XYZ as Warranty (Claims) Administrator since 2007", or something similar. Unless your text clearly states that this position only dealt with claims, I would leave off "claims". (See second link)
