About the role

• We seek a skilled Major Case Unit claims professional to investigate and resolve Reserv's most complex and catastrophic claims. Potential to attend trials, settlement conferences, mediations, and arbitrations. Responsible for the handling of all aspects of the claim assigned, including reserving, communication, documentation, litigation management, evaluation, and negotiation. Additionally, another responsibility would be to participate in and coordinate training in the handling of complex claim matters and projects requiring advanced claim knowledge and experience.
  
  The Major Case Unit Resolution Specialist will also be responsible for maintaining electronic files, analyzing defense counsel's performance, and regularly reporting to the Major Case Unit Manager. In addition, you will collaborate closely with our product and engineering teams to give feedback and identify technology and process improvements.

Who you are

• Highly motivated and growth-oriented. You're excited by the prospect of being part of a tech-driven claims organization.
• Passionate claim professional who cares about the customer and their experience.
• Empathetic. You exercise empathy and patience towards everyone you interact with.

• Creative. You can find the right exit ramp (pun intended) for the resolution of the claim that is in the insured’s best interest.
• Conflict-enjoyer. Conflict does not have to be adversarial, but it HAS to be conversational.
• Curious. You have to want to know the whole story so you can make the right decisions early and action them to a prompt resolution.
• Anti-status quo. You don’t just wish things were done differently, you action on it.
