  • Insurance Carrier Direct Escalations: Contact insurance adjusters and third-party administrators (TPAs) to secure job approvals, track claim payout statuses, and resolve structural vs. mitigation billing discrepancies.
  • Mortgage Escrow Processing: Routinely follow up on multi-party insurance checks. Coordinate directly with property owners and mortgage loss draft departments to expedite inspection approvals and endorsements.
  • Payment Negotiation & Structuring: Negotiate payment arrangements and deductible collections with property owners facing out-of-pocket costs.
  • Dispute Resolution: Review damage estimates, change orders, and certificates of completion alongside project managers within PSA (Proven Jobs) to quickly clear payment hurdles.
  • Invoicing & Reconciliation: Process accurate job invoicing and reconcile incoming ACH, check, wire, and credit card payments against open projects.

Industry-Specific Qualifications:

  • Experience: Minimum 2–4 years of experience in Accounts Receivable and collections specifically within restoration, mitigation, or restoration-focused construction.
  • Software Expertise: Hands-on experience navigating PSA (Proven Jobs) is highly preferred. Familiarity with Xactimate billing layouts is a strong plus.
