In this role, you'll scope, estimate, and manage restoration projects with speed, precision, and a customer-first mindset. You understand that when disaster strikes, there's no time to waste.

Throughout each project you manage, you inspect progress and work quality to ensure that emergency and rebuild timelines are met and in alignment with policy and guidelines. You manage all sorts of restoration claims including water damage, fire damage to both residential and commercial properties. As necessary, you resolve disputes and complaints cheerfully and in a professional manner. The strong relationships you build with home/business owners, adjusters, property managers, and other key players assist you in generating new leads. Your knowledge of the restoration/construction industry, your skills as an estimator, and your knack for sales help you excel in this project management position.
