Experienced Estimators: Your Performance Should Pay

Kaizen Collision Center is hiring an experienced Collision Repair Estimator for our Frederick, Colorado location.

We’re looking for more than someone who knows how to write an estimate.

We want an estimator who knows how to sell.

You know how to connect with customers, build trust, explain the repair process, overcome objections, capture the job, write a complete repair plan, and keep that repair moving from vehicle check-in through final delivery.

If you’re already producing at a high level and want an opportunity where your performance can directly impact your paycheck, we want to talk with you.

Compensation

Up to 6% commission with the opportunity to earn $200,000 annually.

Compensation is based on experience, production, performance, and the applicable compensation plan.

What You’ll Do

  • Convert estimates and opportunities into scheduled repairs
  • Build strong relationships with customers from the first conversation
  • Write complete and accurate repair plans
  • Perform detailed vehicle inspections and damage analysis
  • Blueprint repairs and identify hidden damage
  • Prepare and manage supplements
  • Communicate effectively with insurance companies and adjusters
  • Explain repair recommendations and procedures to customers
  • Provide timely and professional repair updates
  • Coordinate with technicians, painters, parts personnel, and production teams
  • Monitor repairs and proactively address delays
  • Maintain accurate documentation throughout the repair process
  • Help drive sales, production, cycle time, quality, and customer satisfaction

What We’re Looking For

Previous collision repair estimating experience is required.

We’re looking for someone with:

  • Proven collision repair estimating experience
  • Strong sales ability
  • Excellent customer communication skills
  • Ability to convert estimates into repair opportunities
  • Strong knowledge of damage analysis and blueprinting
  • Experience writing supplements and handling insurance claims
  • Knowledge of DRP processes and insurance procedures
  • Understanding of OEM repair procedures
  • Experience with CCC ONE or similar estimating software
  • Ability to manage multiple repairs in a high-volume environment
  • Strong organization and follow-through
  • Understanding of closing ratios, gross profit, cycle time, and production
  • Progressive claims experience is a plus
  • I-CAR, ASE, or OEM certifications are preferred
  • Valid driver’s license preferred

This Is a Producer’s Position

We’re not looking for an entry-level estimator.

And we’re not looking for someone who simply writes what they see and passes the file along.

We want someone who understands the entire business of collision repair.

You know how to write the repair.

You know how to sell the repair.

You know how to keep it moving.

You understand that every customer interaction matters. Every repair plan matters. Every supplement matters. Every day a vehicle sits matters.

If you know your numbers, consistently produce, and want an opportunity where your performance can translate into $200,000 earning potential, it may be time to see what you can do at Kaizen.

Apply today to join the Kaizen Collision Center team in Frederick, Colorado.
