PA firms hire across field, desk, and operations tracks. Use this hub to understand common role shapes — then browse or post on the board.
Fully licensed PAs handle policyholder claims from first inspection through settlement support. Work may be residential, commercial, or both, and often blends site visits with file work. Firms look for active state licenses, strong documentation habits, and clear communication with clients and carriers.
Openings appear as W-2, 1099, or hybrid arrangements depending on the firm. Browse licensed PA jobs or post a licensed role.
Apprentice and trainee paths help candidates learn estimating, policy review, and client intake while working toward a license. Many shops pair mentorship with field rides and desk shadowing. Requirements vary by state — always confirm apprenticeship and licensing rules with your state Department of Insurance.
Desk and file-review roles emphasize estimating platforms, documentation quality, and carrier correspondence with less (or no) daily fieldwork. Some positions are remote or hybrid; others sit in a regional office. Experience with Xactimate or similar tools is often preferred but not universal.
Catastrophe (CAT) and storm deployments send adjusters into affected regions after hail, hurricane, wildfire, or other events. Schedules can be intense and travel-heavy for stretches of the season. Firms typically want licensed PAs who can mobilize quickly and document high volumes cleanly.
Growing firms also hire operations, sales support, recruiting, and leadership roles that keep intakes, vendors, and files moving. These posts may not require a PA license but benefit from insurance or claims context. If you run a firm, these roles are fair game for the board when they sit inside a PA shop.
