Must have the physical dexterity to walk, reach, climb, and crawl to inspect damage, sometimes in unfavorable working conditions or inclement weather. The ability to lift, carry, and climb ladders weighing up to 50 pounds for roof inspections may be required.

Preferred:

  • Drone License: Possessing a drone license is a plus.

  • Multilingual: Proficiency in multiple languages is preferred.

  • Technical Proficiency: Working knowledge of Microsoft Word and Excel (or their equivalents), Xactimate, and/or other claims estimating software.
