About Reserv

Reserv is an insurtech creating and incubating cutting-edge AI and automation technology to bring efficiency and simplicity to claims. Founded by insurtech veterans with deep experience in SaaS and digital claims, Reserv is venture-backed by Bain Capital and Altai Ventures and began operations in May 2022. We are focused on automating highly manual tasks to tackle long-standing problems in claims and set a new standard for TPAs, insurance technology providers, and adjusters alike. At Reserv, our mission is to empower a transparent and intuitive experience that continuously evolves through flexible, data driven technology.

We have ambitious (but attainable!) goals and need experienced adjusters who can work in an evolving environment. If building a leading TPA and the prospect of tackling the long-standing challenges of the claims role sounds exciting, we can’t wait to meet you.

About the role

We seek a skilled Major Case Unit claims professional to investigate and resolve Reserv's most complex and catastrophic claims. Potential to attend trials, settlement conferences, mediations, and arbitrations. Responsible for the handling of all aspects of the claim assigned, including reserving, communication, documentation, litigation management, evaluation, and negotiation. Additionally, another responsibility would be to participate in and coordinate training in the handling of complex claim matters and projects requiring advanced claim knowledge and experience.

The Major Case Unit Resolution Specialist will also be responsible for maintaining electronic files, analyzing defense counsel's performance, and regularly reporting to the Major Case Unit Manager. In addition, you will collaborate closely with our product and engineering teams to give feedback and identify technology and process improvements.

Curious. You have to want to know the whole story so you can make the right decisions early and action them to a prompt resolution.
Anti-status quo. You don’t just wish things were done differently, you action on it.
Communicative. (we'd love to know what this means to you)

Why are you being asked to complete this form?

We are a federal contractor or subcontractor. The law requires us to provide equal employment opportunity to qualified people with disabilities. We have a goal of having at least 7% of our workers as people with disabilities. The law says we must measure our progress towards this goal. To do this, we must ask applicants and employees if they have a disability or have ever had one. People can become disabled, so we need to ask this question at least every five years.

Completing this form is voluntary, and we hope that you will choose to do so. Your answer is confidential. No one who makes hiring decisions will see it. Your decision to complete the form and your answer will not harm you in any way. If you want to learn more about the law or this form, visit the U.S. Department of Labor’s Office of Federal Contract Compliance Programs (OFCCP) website at www.dol.gov/ofccp.
