The best fit for this role will have recent water and/or fire mitigation experience, strong Xactimate skills, and the ability to manage multiple active jobs while delivering a professional customer experience.

Compensation and Benefits

Expected total compensation: $90,000 - $115,000 per year, based on experience and performance. Compensation includes base salary plus performance bonuses.

Benefits include:

What You Will Do

As a Mitigation Project Manager, you will take ownership of mitigation projects and make sure jobs are completed safely, efficiently, profitably, and with strong communication from start to finish.

Responsibilities include

• Respond to water, fire, smoke, and mold losses and take the lead on mitigation projects
• Inspect job sites, determine scope, and create mitigation plans
• Build drying plans, equipment layouts, containment plans, and demolition plans
• Write and update mitigation estimates and sketches using Xactimate and SERVPRO systems
• Communicate with homeowners, property managers, insurance adjusters, and third‑party administrators
• Schedule, coordinate, and lead mitigation crews and vendors
• Monitor job progress, moisture readings, equipment usage, labor, and job profitability
• Maintain complete job documentation, including photos, moisture logs, notes, signatures, and required forms
• Manage estimate updates, supplements, and documentation needed to support billing
• Set clear expectations with customers and deliver a five‑star service experience
• Coordinate smooth handoffs to reconstruction when needed

• 3+ years of recent water mitigation, fire mitigation, or property restoration experience
• Experience running mitigation jobs from start to finish
• Proficiency with Xactimate for mitigation estimating and sketching
• Ability to manage multiple active jobs and keep crews organized
• Working knowledge of drying, demolition, containment, decontamination, and mitigation best practices
• Experience communicating directly with insurance adjusters and/or third‑party administrators
• Strong written and verbal communication skills
• Comfort using job management software, email, mobile apps, photos, and spreadsheets
• Valid driver’s license and ability to meet company driving standards
• Ability to participate in an after-hours/on‑call rotation as needed

Candidates without both recent mitigation experience and Xactimate experience are unlikely to be a fit for this position.
