Emergency Response Coordinator (Fire Chaser)
ServiceMaster Apple Valley · Southington/Central CT · Commission Based · Uncapped
If you've been capped by a commission plan that punished you for having a good year, keep reading. We built this role on a simple belief: commission is earned by your work, not granted by us. If you're bringing in real revenue, there should be no ceiling on what you take home. We're looking for someone who knows this industry from the inside, who can build relationships and sustain them, and who has the tact to stand with a homeowner in the middle of a catastrophe and walk them toward recovery instead of just pitching at them. This role is commission only, uncapped, and we're looking for the person who reads that as an opportunity rather than a risk.
What you'll do
- Respond to active fire and water losses across CT, mostly within Hartford, New Haven, and Litchfield counties
- Monitor real-time emergency dispatch and lead feeds, on call nights, weekends, and holidays
- Get to the scene and make first contact with the property owner. Listen first. Explain the restoration process and what happens next, answer insurance questions in plain language, and get the work signed. The goal here is to be the person who lightens the load, not one more thing to manage
- Build and hold relationships with fire departments, police, EMS, municipal officials, adjusters, and agents. The people who see the loss first are the people who make or break this role
- Hand the job off to the mitigation department.
- Log every lead, contact, and outcome
Key needs for this role
You're calm in a chaotic environment. You can talk to someone on the worst day of their life without sounding like a salesman, and still walk out with a signed contract. You don't need to be managed, chased, or motivated. You already have a phone full of people who trust you.

- Willing and able to be on call 24/7, including nights, weekends, and holidays
- Comfortable working independently in the field
- Able to pass a background check
