ABOUT US: Ethos Risk Services is a leading insurance claims investigation and medical management company, specializing in surveillance and fraud detection. At the forefront, we provide accurate data and actionable insights that translate into better decision-making for our clients.

JOB SUMMARY:

This role involves performing both stationary and mobile surveillance, obtaining video and photographic evidence, and preparing thorough, detailed reports for clients.

KEY RESPONSIBILITIES:

  • Case Preparation: Prepare for surveillance assignment by reviewing Ethos' preliminary reports and case information.
  • Field Surveillance: Perform covert surveillance from your vehicle by tracking and capturing high-quality video evidence of surveillance targets.
  • Report Writing: Draft detailed and court-ready investigative reports summarizing activity and key findings.
  • Documentation: Finalize case file by submitting case reports and uploading video footage via personal laptop at the end of the day.
  • Communication: Work closely with the field supervisor and operations teams, receiving regular guidance and mentorship.


REQUIREMENTS:

  • Previous Experience: Demonstrated proficiency in covert surveillance techniques, capturing high-quality video footage, and preparing thorough, well-organized investigative reports.
  • Driver's License: Valid driver's license and proof of automobile insurance.

  • Private Investigator License: Active Private Investigator license or willingness to obtain one (where required by state).


WORKING CONDITIONS:

  • While we aim to keep assignments within a 2-hour drive of your residence, occasional further travel and overnight stays (covered by the company) may be required
  • Most surveillance cases start at 6:00AM. End time can vary depending on activity and a typical workday can vary from 3-12 hours.
  • Weekends/holidays are common workdays as claimants are more likely to be active.
  • This is an independent role often requiring long hours alone in your vehicle, regardless of weather conditions.
  • Must remain alert with no external distractions, ready to use videography equipment to document subjects.
