Premium Auditor Associate
Berkshire Hathaway Direct Insurance Company 4.8
Pittston, PA jobs
Full-time Description
Job Description(Entry Level and Experienced Welcome to apply!)
bi Berk, a Berkshire Hathaway company, has been experiencing substantial growth since its start just a few short years ago...and is anticipating even more growth to come! We are an internet-driven company that offers business insurance, such as workers' comp, liability, commercial auto and umbrella policies to small business owners across the country. We are looking for enthusiastic premium auditors (experienced or entry level) to join and grow with our team!
The premium auditor will be responsible for conducting Worker's Compensation insurance audits. Because our company is engaged in several lines of insurance, the premium auditor may also be required to conduct audits for other lines of insurance, such as General Liability and Professional Liability (a.k.a. Errors and Omissions). The purpose of an audit is to determine the customer's actual insurance exposure and to process adjustments to ensure appropriate premiums are billed to the customer. To complete the audit, payroll records, tax filings, and other documents are requested from the customers and then analyzed. The premium auditor may then be required to interview the customer over the phone to obtain business operations, employee job duties, and other information that could potentially affect premiums. Once the audit is complete, the premium auditor will process the audit by inputting the audited exposures into our database. If the customer disputes the results of the audit, the premium auditor will address the customer's concerns and ensure that the customer was appropriately billed.
Job Responsibilities
Review and analyze payroll, tax, and accounting records to determine the appropriate premium base for a variety of insurance lines, including Worker's Compensation, General Liability, and Professional Liability (a.k.a. Errors and Omissions)
