Bring Your Estimating Expertise Where It Matters Most

Are you an experienced estimator with expertise in agricultural equipment, heavy equipment, trucks, trailers, or specialty equipment? Whether your background comes from a dealership, repair facility, manufacturer, independent appraisal firm, fleet operation, or insurance environment, this is an opportunity to put your technical estimating knowledge to work in a highly specialized role.

At Farm Bureau Financial Services, we're looking for a skilled professional who understands equipment construction, repair methods, parts replacement, and damage evaluation. If you're passionate about accurate estimating and helping others make informed decisions, we'd love to hear from you.

Who We Are

At Farm Bureau Financial Services, our client/members trust us to help protect their families, homes, vehicles, and livelihoods. For more than 80 years, we've built a reputation grounded in integrity, teamwork, passion, service, leadership, and accountability. We're equally committed to creating an environment where employees can learn, grow, and thrive.

What You'll Do

As an Ag & Specialty Equipment Appraiser, you'll serve as a technical estimating expert responsible for evaluating damage and preparing accurate repair estimates on a wide variety of agricultural and specialty equipment. This position is part of our in-house team located in either West Des Moines, Iowa, or Lincoln, Nebraska.

Key responsibilities include:

Independently evaluate damage and prepare detailed repair estimates for agricultural equipment, construction and heavy equipment, heavy trucks, semi tractors, trailers, and specialty equipment
Analyze repair methods, labor operations, parts replacement, and repair-versus-replace decisions to ensure accurate and consistent estimates
Review estimates for quality, accuracy, consistency, and compliance with company guidelines
Serve as a subject matter expert on equipment construction, repairability, damage analysis, and valuation
Provide technical guidance and support on complex, high-severity, or unusual equipment losses
Collaborate with claim professionals, leadership, vendors, repair facilities, and equipment experts to support accurate claim outcomes
Grant appropriate payment authority within designated limits
Deliver training and ongoing support to team members on estimating best practices, repair procedures, and damage assessment techniques
Communicate professionally and effectively with policyholders, agents, repair facilities, management, regulatory agencies, and the public

Who Succeeds in This Role

Successful candidates often come from:

Agricultural equipment dealerships
Equipment manufacturers and service centers
Heavy equipment and construction equipment dealerships
Truck and trailer repair facilities
Commercial truck collision centers
Fleet maintenance organizations
Independent appraisal firms
Insurance appraisal and claims organizations

If you have strong equipment estimating experience, we can help you learn the insurance side of the business.

Required Qualifications

Five or more years of hands-on estimating experience involving agricultural equipment, heavy equipment, construction equipment, heavy trucks, semi tractors, trailers, or specialty equipment
Demonstrated ability to write accurate repair estimates and evaluate repair-versus-replace decisions
Strong understanding of equipment construction, repair methods, damage analysis, labor operations, and parts sourcing
Proven problem-solving, communication, customer service, and collaboration skills
Ability to independently manage complex or high-value estimating assignments
Willingness to travel as needed and work in varying weather conditions

Preferred Qualifications

Insurance claims, appraisal, adjusting, or damage evaluation experience
Experience using industry estimating platforms and appraisal tools
Senior Appraiser or similar advanced technical appraisal experience
Experience providing training, mentoring, or technical leadership
Knowledge of agricultural and heavy equipment manufacturers, repair practices, and equipment valuation methods

Enhanced 401(k) with company match
Low-cost medical, dental, and vision insurance
Life and disability insurance
