Property Adjuster – West Birmingham / Walsall
Job Location: West Birmingham/WalsallJob Type: PermanentRemuneration: Competitive salary taking into account skills, experience and qualifications
As a Domestic Loss Adjuster, you’ll manage a caseload of domestic property damage claims across London/Southeast, from visiting customers at their homes, co‑ordinating visits from contractors, to finally settling each claim. Imagine yourself stepping into people’s lives during some of their most unsettling moments: a burst pipe that flooded the kitchen, a fire that scorched the living room, trees fallen through the roof from storm damage. You’ll be there, the calming presence amidst the chaos, then returning to your desk at Sedgwick surrounded by your colleagues, or to your laptop at home, to compile a comprehensive report.
Along with visits to claimants’ properties, we are happy for your base to be a balance of our office and your home. This is perfect for detail‑oriented problem‑solvers, with a passion for helping people, who crave variety and want to build a rewarding career.
