Full Job Description

If you love getting into the details of a loss, building estimates that hold up when a carrier pushes back, and being the go-to technical voice on a claim, this is the role for you. You'll independently scope, estimate, and defend property claims from investigation through final negotiation.

At Allied Public Adjusters, our mission is a world where every property loss is settled truthfully and equitably. Since 1997, we've worked on behalf of policyholders to demand what's right by using technical expertise, field investigations, and uncompromising quality. We empower policyholders with the most skillful representation, while ensuring carriers have the information they need to do what's right.

The Senior Estimator independently scopes, estimates, and defends property insurance claims, like water, fire, and related structural damage. They partner closely with our Public Adjusters so they have accurate, carrier-proof valuations that maximize client settlements.

Technical Advisory & Rebuttal

Review and rebut carrier counter-estimates; coordinate and critique sub-bids from vendors and experts
Assist PAs in inspecting, scoping, and estimating losses to ensure their estimates align with APA's quality standards
Re-engage on disputes when PAs need technical backup for negotiation

Team & Process Development

Design and build APA's estimating historical database
Document APA estimating procedures and best practices (SOPs)
Provide structured training and mentor junior estimators to help expand the estimating function
Be a good team member, help others where needed
