Your ability to earn more as a claims adjuster is usually based on how much on-the-job experience you have. In many jurisdictions across Canada, claims adjusters must be licensed, and in order to be licensed, you need a degree. It might not be worth the time and effort to pursue a master’s degree if your goal is to advance in your current position, but it will certainly help you qualify for other, higher-up positions. Your accuracy as a claims adjuster is key, so try to maintain a high attention to detail and learn any software platforms that might make you better at this. Finally, if you’ve attained a certain level of licensure (it varies across Canada), you may be able to supervise/train claims adjusters on a lower level, which should garner you more pay.
Your approach to negotiating a higher salary as a claims adjuster depends on whether you’re trying to earn more in your current role, or you were offered a new position elsewhere and want to earn a higher starting salary. If you’re negotiating a new job offer, start by looking at what other claims adjuster jobs are paying in your area to see if your offer is fair. You can also try to negotiate for training opportunities or more time off, which some companies may be willing to offer in lieu of increased pay right away. If you are negotiating a higher salary in your current role, your track record is your friend here. Your success as a claims adjuster comes down to how accurate you are and your ability to spot and stop fraud. Do you make little to no mistakes? Have the claims you adjusted been legitimate and dealt with fairly and efficiently? Point this out and you’ll be in a good spot to negotiate.
