Emergency property restoration and disaster recovery across 35+ countries
BELFOR operates a global emergency-response network with 13,000+ employees across 550+ locations, handling fire, water, wind, and natural-disaster property damage. The tech stack is operations-focused (Xactimate for claims, JD Edwards for ERP, ADP for workforce management) with no major platform migrations underway — indicating a mature, stable infrastructure built around claims processing and field-team coordination rather than innovation velocity. Hiring is heavily skewed toward operations and construction roles, with minimal engineering headcount, matching an on-site service business model.
