Think you can look at a write-off and already know its story — what happened, what it’s worth, and whether that “minor front bump” is hiding something bigger? We want to talk to you. IAA Australia, part of global marketplace leader Ritchie Bros., is looking for an Auction Valuer (Salvage) to join our growing salvage team. This is a highly autonomous, national-level role with real scope to shape how we value vehicles across the country — and no, you won’t need to go stand in a yard to do it. Every valuation is completed through our online portal, so this role is fully computer-based and flexible on location.
Why this role
- Autonomy — a national remit with real ownership over your valuations and methodology
- Variety — vehicles, heavy salvage, caravans, and marine; no two days look the same
- Growth — join a fast-expanding Australian business backed by a 2.5-million-vehicle-a-year global operation
- Flexibility — fully online portal-based, hybrid working after onboarding
What You’ll Do
- Conduct salvage valuations across vehicles, heavy salvage, caravans and marine using auction data, market trends, and proprietary pricing tools
- Meet accuracy benchmarks and SLA turnaround times
- Stay on top of market conditions and auction trends
- Partner with Remarketing, Sales, and Operations to keep valuations aligned with business and customer needs
- Provide valuation insights to support internal decisions and customer conversations
- Supply buy prices for denied claim vehicles and support pricing strategy for auction outcomes
- Maintain and improve the IAA AU Vehicle Database
- Help build out the AU pricing guide and refine valuation methodology over time
- Ensure compliance with company policy and industry standards
About You
- Experience valuing vehicles — salvage valuation experience is a strong plus, but we’re also keen to hear from people with strong vehicle valuation, dealer trade, or insurance assessing backgrounds
- A sharp eye for identifying vehicle spec level and condition
- Comfortable interpreting auction data and pricing models
- Strong communicator who can work confidently across teams
What’s on Offer
- Competitive salary package plus annual bonus
- Private health insurance for the whole family, income protection & life insurance
