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.

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

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
