Be the Person Customers Trust When the Unexpected Happens

When a home or business is damaged by water, fire, mold, or another unexpected event, customers need someone who can walk in, take control of the situation, and give them confidence that there is a plan.

That’s where you come in.

Paul Davis Restoration is looking for a Mitigation Sales professional to join our Waukegan team. This isn't traditional sales. You won't spend your day cold calling or sitting behind a desk. You'll respond to property losses, meet customers and insurance professionals on-site, assess the damage, develop the scope of work, secure the project, and help move it successfully through the mitigation process.

You'll combine restoration knowledge, relationship-building, estimating, and project leadership to turn an emergency into a clear path forward.

What You'll Do

Respond to emergency and non-emergency property losses

Meet with homeowners, property owners, adjusters, and other insurance professionals

Inspect damaged properties and determine mitigation needs

Develop accurate scopes of work using Sketch/MICA and company systems

Explain the restoration process, recommendations, timelines, and next steps

Build trust with customers and secure contracts and service authorizations

Coordinate with the Mitigation team to ensure a smooth handoff and successful project

Maintain strong communication with customers and insurance partners throughout the loss

Monitor project progress and step in when issues could impact the customer or project

Help transition customers into Reconstruction when additional repairs are needed

Build and maintain relationships with insurance professionals and referral partners

Support revenue, profitability, and customer satisfaction goals

Who Will Thrive Here?

We're looking for someone who can walk into a stressful situation, connect with people quickly, assess what needs to happen, and confidently lead the conversation forward.

You may be a great fit if you:

Have experience in restoration, construction, estimating, insurance, project management, or a related field

Understand mitigation and the property restoration process

Know how to build relationships with customers, adjusters, and referral partners

Are comfortable asking for the business and closing the job

Can balance customer needs with project scope, documentation, and profitability

Communicate clearly and confidently—even when emotions are high

Are organized, responsive, and able to manage multiple losses at once

Enjoy being in the field and taking ownership rather than waiting for someone to tell you what to do

Property damage restoration experience is strongly preferred, but we are open to someone with the right combination of sales ability, construction knowledge, customer service, and drive. Two or more years of related experience is preferred.

IICRC certifications are a plus—or we'll look for someone willing to obtain them.

This Could Be Your Next Step

Maybe you're already working in restoration and want to move beyond running the equipment or managing the production side of a job. Maybe you're an experienced Project Manager or Estimator who is strongest when you're in front of customers. Or maybe you're in construction, insurance, or another service-based industry and know how to build relationships and close business.

We're interested in the person behind the title.

If you understand how to earn someone's trust, recognize an opportunity, and take ownership from “we have a loss” to “we have a plan,” we want to hear from you.

Apply today and help us restore more than property.
