Help People and Businesses Recover When It Matters Most

At United Public Adjusters, we advocate exclusively for policyholders. Whether helping a family rebuild after a devastating home loss or assisting a business recovering from a major property interruption, our mission is the same: ensure our clients receive every dollar they are entitled to under their insurance policies.

We're seeking a Forensic CPA to join our growing team and apply financial expertise to complex insurance claims. This is an exceptional opportunity for a CPA who enjoys investigative work, financial analysis, problem-solving, and making a meaningful impact for clients during some of the most challenging times in their lives.

If you're looking for a career that combines forensic accounting, consulting, insurance, and client advocacy, we want to speak with you.

What You'll Do

As a Forensic CPA, you'll analyze financial information, quantify losses, and provide expert financial support for a wide range of residential and commercial insurance claims.

Your responsibilities will include:

Forensic Accounting & Financial Analysis

  • Analyze financial records, tax returns, accounting data, payroll records, inventories, receipts, and supporting documentation.
  • Quantify financial losses associated with residential and commercial property insurance claims.
  • Calculate business interruption, loss of income, additional living expense (ALE), extra expense, inventory, and other covered losses when applicable.
  • Develop financial models and analyses that support insurance claim valuations.

Insurance Claims Support

  • Work closely with public adjusters, attorneys, consultants, and policyholders throughout the claims process.
  • Review insurance policies and financial documentation supporting claims.
  • Prepare detailed financial schedules and claim presentations.
  • Assist in developing claim strategies for complex losses.

Client Advisory

  • Serve as a trusted financial resource for homeowners and business owners during the insurance recovery process.
  • Explain financial analyses clearly to clients, insurance representatives, attorneys, and other stakeholders.
  • Assist clients in gathering and organizing financial documentation necessary to support their claims.

Expert Analysis & Dispute Resolution

  • Support the resolution of disputed insurance claims through detailed financial analysis.
  • Respond to insurance carrier questions regarding claim calculations.
  • Prepare well-supported reports and documentation.
  • Assist with appraisal, mediation, and litigation support when needed.

Qualifications

Required

  • Active Certified Public Accountant (CPA) license.
  • 5+ years of accounting, forensic accounting, financial consulting, insurance claims consulting, or related experience.
  • Strong financial statement analysis and accounting expertise.
  • Advanced Microsoft Excel and financial modeling skills.
  • Excellent analytical, organizational, and communication skills.

Preferred

  • Experience in forensic accounting, litigation support, valuation, economic damages, or financial investigations.
  • Experience with insurance claims, property losses, business interruption, or loss of income calculations.
  • Knowledge of commercial or residential property insurance claims.
  • Experience working with insurance carriers, public adjusters, attorneys, or consulting firms.
  • CFE, CFF, ABV, or similar credentials are a plus.

Why Join United Public Adjusters?

At United Public Adjusters, you'll become part of a respected and growing organization that is committed to helping policyholders recover after property losses.

We offer:

  • Competitive compensation with performance-based bonus opportunity.
  • Challenging and intellectually rewarding work.
  • Diverse and interesting cases involving residential and commercial losses.
  • A collaborative, team-oriented culture.
  • Direct client impact: helping families and businesses recover after unexpected losses.
  • Long-term career growth within an expanding organization.

Who We're Looking For

We're looking for a CPA who is naturally curious, analytical, and enjoys solving complex financial problems. Whether your background is in forensic accounting, litigation support, valuation, consulting, or insurance claims, you'll have the opportunity to apply your expertise in a specialized field where your work has a meaningful impact.

If you're ready to build a rewarding career helping policyholders recover from property losses while working alongside experienced professionals in a collaborative environment, we encourage you to apply.

Join United Public Adjusters and help make a difference; one claim at a time.
