Senior Property Field Adjuster

Job Description

Job Description

A client of AlphaStaffHCM™ is searching for a Senior Field Property Adjuster . This organization provides stability, strong operational support, and the opportunity to handle meaningful, real-world claims where your judgment directly impacts outcomes.

Summary:

You are not a desk adjuster. You prefer being in the field, walking properties, assessing damage firsthand, and making decisions based on what you see, not just what’s written in a file. You take ownership of complex claims and work them from start to finish without needing constant direction. You know how to balance empathy with objectivity. Policyholders may be going through difficult situations, and you communicate clearly while still protecting the integrity of the claim. You stay composed in high-pressure conversations and know how to guide them toward resolution. You are disciplined in your approach. You follow process, document thoroughly, and understand that consistency matters. At the same time, you think independently, solve problems, and make sound judgment calls when situations don’t fit neatly into a box. This role involves field inspections, and handling complex property losses, and may involve travel. If you prefer predictable, desk-based work, this will not be the right fit. If you value being the person who steps in, figures it out, and moves things forward, you will do really well. This is an hourly, non-exempt position with paid overtime available.
