Our opportunity

Our Major and Complex Loss teams are at the heart of our business: Managing the more technical and complex claims ranging from flood damage resulting in Business Interruption to claims associated with catastrophic events. As a Major and Complex Loss Surveyor, you’ll investigate and provide factual surveying reports to our valued Clients and the Major Loss Team Leader within set SLA’s, working in partnership to ensure all factual information is present.

What you'll be doing

Upon receipt of instruction, you’ll investigate and report upon Major and Complex Loss incidents that are subject of an insurance claim for and on behalf of Insurers so as they may consider policy coverage, claim acceptance, settlement and/or recovery.  As with most claims of a high value or complex nature, this will require site visits to investigate loss circumstances and damage sustained.

Typically, you’ll work in partnership with Local Authorities, such as building control, solicitors or emergency services in some extremes regarding liability and prospective loss mitigation contractors.  You’ll also liaise with repair contactors regarding the scope and the works required and be the main point of contact to ensure assessment and reporting of settlement options and recommendations via the lead adjuster are communicated appropriately.

  • Extensive knowledge and experience with Building construction and Building Regulations
