ATS Resume Optimization for Subrogation Specialists & Recoveries Handlers

Subrogation is a third, distinct page in our claims family alongside Claims Adjuster and Claims Examiner/Claims Handler โ€” and it needs to be, because the skill set is different: subrogation specialists pursue third-party recovery after a claim is paid, a legal- and negotiation-heavy specialism, not front-line coverage determination or file handling. The US and UK even use different search strings for it, the same regional divergence already documented for adjusters and examiners: US postings say 'Subrogation Specialist' (~90+ live remote roles on Glassdoor, $42Kโ€“$84K), while UK postings say 'Recoveries Handler' or 'Recovery Claims Handler' โ€” Reed lists dedicated roles in Orpington, Chester, Rochdale, and Warrington (ยฃ24Kโ€“ยฃ30K plus commission), up to a senior 'Group Head of Recoveries and Salvage' title. There's no standalone BLS or ONS code; both markets fold this role into the general claims-adjuster occupational category, so exact-string matching on the recovery-specific title and vocabulary is what actually surfaces your resume. We rewrite your resume or CV in the region-correct recovery vocabulary, distinct from generic claims-handling language.
