Company Background
HireBetter’s client is one of the largest and most established public adjusting firms in the Western United States and Canada, committed to guiding policyholders through the complexities of insurance claims.
Position Summary
We are seeking a confident, emotionally intelligent Outside Sales Professional to serve as the first point of contact for property owners impacted by significant losses (typically $500K–$10M+). This is a high-impact, field-based sales role that requires someone who thrives on being in the community, engaging directly with property owners, and building trust quickly in high-stakes situations.
You will be backed by a strong brand, daily leads, and a seasoned team of closers, estimators, and claims experts. Your mission: secure signed representation agreements that allow us to advocate for policyholders and help them rebuild their lives.
Responsibilities
• Review daily company-provided assignments, which may require travel within the Bay Area, sometimes up to two hours from home.
• Conduct on-site visits to affected properties shortly after loss events and introduce the company’s services to prospective clients.
• Establish trust and rapport with homeowners, executives, attorneys, and property managers in the immediate aftermath of a loss.
• Lead consultative, high-value sales conversations that result in signed representation agreements.
• Partner closely with internal research and support teams, who provide detailed client and property information and assist with client communications.
• Transition clients smoothly to the claims and operations team once an agreement is secured, allowing you to focus on the next opportunity.
• Compete effectively with contractors, brokers, carriers, and other public adjusters in a competitive market.
• Translate complex insurance and policy language into clear, actionable strategies for clients.
Qualifications
• Proven success in outside sales, ideally in restoration, construction, remediation, or insurance-related industries.
• Strong relationship-building and negotiation skills; ability to gain trust under pressure.
• High emotional intelligence with the ability to balance empathy and assertiveness.
• Resilient, self-motivated, and comfortable working independently.
• Excellent communication and critical thinking abilities.
• Familiarity with insurance claims or property loss scenarios is a plus (training provided).

Candidates must reside in the San Francisco Bay Area, specifically between San Francisco and Palo Alto, with a strong preference for those located on the Peninsula. This proximity is essential to ensure timely response to assignments across the territory.
