Charles Taylor believes that it holds a distinctive position in its markets in that it is able to provide professional services and technology solutions in order to support every stage of the insurance lifecycle and every aspect of the insurance operating model.
Charles Taylor Adjusting focuses on commercial losses and claims across all major lines and geographies, many of which are large and complex in nature. We handle onshore and offshore claims, across 4 main divisions; Property, Casualty, Technical & Special Risks, Marine, Aviation, Natural Resources and believe we are the only global loss adjuster to have achieved a true market leadership position across all these disciplines.
The Role
The role of Senior Forensic Accountant is to resolve financial insurance losses, including but not limited to, business interruption, product recall, product guarantee, cyber, fidelity and stock, by investigating claims through the detailed analysis and review of accounting records, third party information and general enquiries.
Through the methodical analysis of financial data and public information, you will be required to evaluate and identify the real economic impact of the insured incident, enabling the instructing party to minimise risks, protect assets and make informed decisions.
Upon completion of the review, the role is extended to assessing the quantum, negotiating the quantum with brokers, lawyers, accountants, and corporate management.
Throughout the process, you will be required to work closely with the claimant and the adjuster, at times on your own otherwise as part of the larger accounting team. You may be required to work with other consultants retained by the adjuster, such as construction consultants and engineers, to help ensure that the loss measurement is aligned to the reinstatement timeline.
The role will not be limited to financial documents. You will need to look beyond the numbers. This may include researching market trends, industry information and conducting interviews with business owners, employees, vendors, and customers.
