POSTED ON 8/30/2026

CBCS, a division of Cottingham & Butler, is growing and we’re excited to welcome new team members to our Workers’ Compensation team as Claims Administrators. This is a great opportunity to start or build your career in a professional office environment. In this role, you’ll learn how to review and manage medical-only claims while providing helpful, responsive service to our clients. No insurance experience? No problem. We provide training to teach you what you need to know. We’re simply looking for people who are dependable, eager to learn, and comfortable communicating with others.

Responsibilities
As a Claims Administrator, you will manage a caseload of medical-only Workers’ Compensation claims from start to finish. Your core responsibilities include:

  • Reviewing and evaluating medical-only claims to understand what occurred
  • Communicating with injured workers, medical providers, and clients
  • Documenting claim activity accurately and consistently following CBCS Best Practices

  • Submitting required state EDI filings and supporting Medicare compliance

We’re seeking individuals with experience in a professional setting who bring strong attention to detail, organization, and communication skills. You should be comfortable managing multiple priorities, navigating documentation, and working both independently and as part of a team. Prior claims or insurance experience is a plus but not required. We provide training on the technical aspects of the role. More importantly, we’re looking for individuals who are dependable, motivated, and eager to build a long-term career in a high-performance environment.
