Salvage Administrator - Trucking

Description 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. We have ambitious (but attainable!) goals and need 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 The Salvage Administrator at Reserv may serve as a shared service resource supporting multiple business units across the organization. This role provides centralized oversight of salvage processing with our vendor partners, Copart and IAA, ensuring vehicles move efficiently from pickup through sale, while maintaining compliance with title and salvage requirements. The Salvage Administrator reduces salvage cycle time, improves vendor coordination, and creates consistency in handling across all lines of business. What we need

We need you to do all the things typical to the role:

Salvage Monitoring & Vendor Coordination

• Monitor vehicle movement with Copart and IAA once assignments are made by claim teams.
• Resolve pickup or yard delays directly with salvage vendors.
• Serve as the primary point of contact with Copart and IAA for salvage and title-related issues.
• Title & Document Management (TE & Exceptions)
• Track title status through Copart Title Express (TE) and IAA Title Procurement (TP) systems, ensuring documents are secured and processed timely.
• Work stalled title cases (missing signatures, lienholder delays, incomplete documentation).

Manage titles received in the corporate mailbox, including:

• Owner retain vehicles – process reassignments back to owners with salvage branding.
• Unrecovered thefts – hold until resolved, then process appropriately.
• Provide consistent handling across both Copart and IAA salvage processes.
• Claim File Oversight
• Document salvage and title status in claim files across all supported business units.
• Escalate salvage or title delays to the appropriate claims team when needed.
• Auction & Proceeds Tracking
• Monitor auction readiness and sale results in Copart and IAA systems.
• Confirm sale proceeds are applied correctly to claim files.
• Partner with accounting to resolve any payment discrepancies.

Coordinate EDR/EDM inspections with Copart and IAA to ensure modules are preserved and inspections are scheduled before vehicle sale.
