Aviation Surveyor

Role overview

Join Sedgwick Aviation Services as an Aviation Claims Surveyor and support global insurers with complex, high-value aviation claims on an international platform. The role is based in Singapore, with the position advertised in the UK for relocation to Singapore. This is a permanent, full-time opportunity offering compensation that is competitive and aligned with your skills, experience, and qualifications.

Sedgwick Aviation Services works with the aviation insurance market as a specialist global partner. Its regional teams bring together highly experienced aviation claims surveyors and deliver a wide range of technical services, including hull surveys, liability investigations, crisis and incident response, operational safety surveys, expert witness assistance, and salvage sales. This expertise supports the handling of challenging aviation claims and risk matters around the world.

What the job involves

After receiving the required training, you will manage aviation insurance claims ranging from relatively minor damage events to major aircraft accidents, along with related services for insurers worldwide. Your work will include investigating loss circumstances, attending accident sites when needed, assessing risk exposure, evaluating damage, coordinating with airlines, operators, repairers, and other stakeholders, and providing technical guidance to move claims toward closure.

Experience and background needed

The role calls for extensive aviation maintenance experience, along with strong technical knowledge of current-generation aircraft. You should also be comfortable preparing detailed reports, using business software confidently, and communicating clearly with a range of stakeholders. A pilot licence or experience in flight operations would be helpful, though it is not essential. International travel at short notice is part of the role, and English is the main business language; additional languages would be an advantage.

Compensation and benefits

You will receive a benefits package that includes a productivity incentive scheme, housing allowance, car allowance, pension scheme, and 25 days of holiday plus bank holidays. Health and wellbeing support includes private healthcare, life assurance, an employee assistance programme, and group income protection.
