Job description

We’re looking for a seasoned Claim Specialist IV to take ownership of complex lost time claims while serving as a mentor and subject matter expert within our Claims team. This is a high-visibility role designed for a skilled professional who thrives in a fast-paced environment, exercises sound judgment, and enjoys elevating the capabilities of others. The Claim Specialist IV investigates, evaluates, negotiates, and resolves lost time claims within settlement and reserving authority up to stated maximum. Based on experience and proven ability, an expanded and more difficult caseload will be expected, requiring a lesser degree of supervision.

This position can be remote, hybrid or in-person

What You’ll Do

Own the full claim lifecycle: Investigate, evaluate, negotiate, and resolve lost time workers’ compensation claims within designated settlement and reserving authority
Analyze complex exposures: Assess compensability, medical, legal, and indemnity factors while proactively managing risk and claim cost drivers
Navigate jurisdictional requirements: Ensure compliance with state-specific WC laws, litigation processes, and regulatory guidelines
Strategically manage claims: Develop and execute resolution strategies, including collaboration with defense counsel, medical providers, and vendors
Exercise advanced judgment: Handle a high-exposure, complex caseload with a high degree of autonomy and limited supervision
Develop others: Design and deliver training sessions, research materials, and technical guidance for less experienced adjusters
Serve as a subject matter expert: Provide leadership in best practices, reserving, settlement strategy, and claim handling excellence

What Sets This Role Apart

Complex, high-impact caseload: Manage litigated and non-litigated lost time claims requiring deep technical expertise
Expanded authority: Settlement and reserving authority aligned with your experience and demonstrated capabilities
Influential role: Shape claim outcomes and elevate team performance through mentorship and knowledge sharing
Cross-functional exposure: Regular collaboration with legal, medical management, underwriting, and risk partners

What You Bring

Proven experience managing lost time claims with increasing complexity - 4 years of WC lost time claim handling required
Strong negotiation and analytical skills with a focus on resolution
Ability to work independently while maintaining high-quality outcomes
Passion for mentoring, training, and knowledge sharing
Demonstrated ability to handle confidential, high-impact situations with professionalism
