Claims Specialist (Part Time)

Reports To: Director Quality Assurance & Compliance Department: Pricing & Performance Type: Hybrid (2 days in office firm) Location: Mississauga Office Compensation: $20-$25/hr (20hrs/week) The Reality of This Role Logistics Alliance moves freight for some of Canada's leading retailers and manufacturers, and every damaged or lost shipment represents money the business is owed. We're looking for a Claims Specialist to own the carrier-side recovery process from the moment a claim opportunity surfaces to the moment the carrier pays out. This is a high-volume, detail-driven role. You'll be sorting through OS&D reports, chasing documentation, and going toe-to-toe with carriers who'd rather not pay. If you can hold a hundred moving pieces in your head at once, stay professionally relentless on follow-ups, and dig until you find exactly where in the supply chain something went wrong, read on. What Your Day Actually Looks Like Morning: You're triaging your inbox, working through new OS&D reports and specialist tags to flag fresh claim opportunities before the clock starts ticking on filing windows. Mid-Morning: You're building evidence packages, pulling Bills of Lading, PODs, and photos, and requesting customer invoices on their required cadence. Afternoon: You're on the phone or in email threads with carriers, negotiating disputes, chasing missing documents, and updating claim statuses on the Monday board. Late Afternoon: You're checking response timelines for anything approaching the 60-day or 30-day marks, issuing final notices where needed, and confirming payments received. You'll Thrive Here If… You're an investigator at heart: You don't take liability at face value. You read the documentation and photos until you know exactly where the damage happened and who's responsible. You have professional persistence: A rejected claim doesn't end the conversation for you. You follow up, escalate, and negotiate until the file is resolved fairly. You thrive in high volume: A packed inbox doesn't rattle you. You prioritize, batch, and keep every claim moving without letting anything fall through the cracks. You're deadline-driven : 60-day windows, 9-month windows, 48-hour final notices, you track them all and never miss one. You're precise under pressure: Fast-paced doesn't mean sloppy. You keep your documentation and claim records clean even when the volume is high. What You Should Know This role owns the full carrier lifecycle of a claim. You'll be given training on the tools (Monday.com and internal systems), but the judgment calls on liability, negotiation strategy, and escalation timing are yours to make. Every dollar recovered reflects your follow-through, and leadership will be looking at your closed files as the measure of the role.
