  • Negotiate repair costs and settlements with body shops, customers, and third-party claimants to reach fair and timely resolutions while maintaining quality repair standards.
  • Identify and document pre-existing damage, prior repairs, and potential fraud indicators to ensure accurate claim evaluation and protect company interests.
  • Collaborate with claim representatives, body shops, and vendors to coordinate repairs, authorize supplements, and resolve coverage or repair-related issues.
  • Provide exceptional customer service by explaining the appraisal process, answering questions, assisting in moving claims towards timely resolution, and keeping vehicle owners informed throughout the claim lifecycle.
  • Adapt to new technology implementations, system upgrades, and digital tool rollouts, particularly in the areas of AI while maintaining productivity and service quality.
  • Perform other duties as assigned.

What Will Our Ideal Candidate Have?

  • Bachelor’s Degree.
  • Active adjuster license, where applicable.
  • Two years of auto physical damage appraisal experience.

Why it works

3×

more interviews than doing it yourself with ChatGPT.

ChatGPT writes a CV and never learns what happened to it. We see every reply. For each CV we know:

  • How it was written, and how the review scored it
  • When we applied, and how long after the posting went up
  • Which posting, which company, which city
  • Who got the interview, and who heard nothing

That is how we know which CVs get called.
