We are working with a leading loss assessing company within the property damage claims sector, which is looking for an experienced Loss Assessor to cover the North West.

This well-established company offers a comprehensive service for policyholders (commercial and residential) and has a great reputation for the quality of its work.

You’ll be joining a family-run, independent firm that really cares about its people, and where you’ll benefit from a great deal of support.

Role Description

We are looking for a Loss Assessor to project manage insurance claims on behalf of policyholders. You can expect to survey properties that have suffered damage caused by impact, flooding, fire, storm, subsidence, and water damage, and prepare a detailed scope of the required repairs and other specification documents for presentation to insurers and loss adjusters. You will negotiate and settle claims, ensuring the best possible outcome for the policyholder.

Reasons to use Rodeo

I’m in my final year doing Economics and I don’t know whether to apply for grad schemes now or do a masters first. What do you think?

Honest answer — it depends on where you want to end up. A lot of top grad schemes (Big 4, civil service, banking) don’t need a masters. Let’s look at the ones you’d be competitive for now, and we can decide if a masters actually adds anything.

Also worth knowing: most autumn 2026 applications are open now. Timing matters more than you think.

Start with a chat, not a search bar

Grad scheme, placement, apprenticeship? Not sure what you want yet — that's fine. Your agent talks it through with you and turns "I have no idea" into a shortlist.
