Workers Compensation/General Liability Insurance Premium Auditor - Field & Hybrid
Full or Part time available
$30 Per Billable Hour base rate for audits conducted strictly from home, $40 to $45 per billable hour for audits done on site based on experience.
Join a Leader in the Insurance Audit Industry | Flexible Schedule | Work from home|
RLD Associates, Inc. is seeking a motivated and detail-oriented Premium Auditor to join our growing team. This remote position responsible for servicing the Philadelphia, PA territory. As a Premium Auditor, you will be conducting both physical field insurance premium audits at insured locations throughout your assigned territory, and hybrid insurance premium audits, which are completed entirely from a home office using phone interviews, email correspondence, and electronic document review. This combination provides a strong balance of independence, variety, and earning potential while ensuring consistent workflow throughout the year.
What You'll Do
Commercial insurance premiums for workers compensation and general liability are considered variable premium policies as they are based on an estimate of payrolls, sales, and other costs. As a Premium Auditor, you will verify actual exposures at the end of a policy period by reviewing financial records, conducting client interviews, and performing either on-site or remote audits.
This position is ideal for professionals who enjoy working independently, building relationships with business owners, and spending time in the field while maintaining the flexibility to complete additional audits remotely.
Key Responsibilities
- Review assigned audit requests, including Workers' Compensation and General Liability policies
- Manage and prioritize a territory-based audit inventory
- Contact insureds to schedule audit appointments and maintain professional communication throughout the audit process
- Conduct on-site and virtual audits of business operations and financial records
- Examine payroll records, tax filings, general ledgers, cash disbursements, and other accounting documents
- Research and apply insurance classification and rating rules in accordance with carrier guidelines and industry standards
- Interview business owners and key personnel to obtain accurate exposure information
- Prepare detailed, professional audit reports utilizing Microsoft Excel and proprietary systems
- Deliver exceptional customer service while representing both RLD Associates and our carrier clients
Territory & Travel
This position is responsible for the Nashville, TN territory.
- Physical audits require regular travel throughout your assigned territory, which may include up to a 60-mile radius surrounding Nashville, TN
- Travel may be up to 1-2 days per week, depending on field audit assignments
- Home-based remote position offering significant scheduling flexibility
- Manage your own calendar and appointments to support both your professional responsibilities and personal commitments
What We're Looking For
Required Qualifications
- Experience in bookkeeping, payroll processing, accounting, auditing, or commercial insurance
- Strong analytical and organizational skills
- Excellent verbal and written communication abilities
- Ability to work independently and manage a flexible schedule
- Self-motivated, dependable, and highly professional
- Proficiency with Microsoft Excel, Outlook, Teams, and other business software
- Reliable transportation and ability to travel throughout the assigned territory
Preferred Qualifications
- Previous experience conducting insurance premium audits
- Experience analyzing payroll and accounting records
- Knowledge of insurance classifications and manual rules

Why People Stay in This Job
- Real schedule freedom. Insured contact (visits and calls) happens during business hours — but you decide when. Everything else — the analysis, the worksheets, the report writing — happens whenever you want: early mornings, evenings, weekends. Around your kids, your classes, your life.
- No micromanagement. Each audit comes with a due date. Hit your due dates and the how, when, and where are entirely up to you. No daily check-ins, no activity tracking, no one looking over your shoulder.
- Variety without chaos. Every audit is a different business — a roofing contractor one day, a restaurant group the next. The work stays interesting, but the process is consistent and learnable.
- A genuine career path. Premium audit experience is scarce and in demand. The skills you build here — financial analysis, classification, client communication — are valued across the insurance industry.
Pay: $30.00 - $45.00 per hour
Benefits:
- 401(k)
- 401(k) matching

Auditor Jobs in Tennessee: Frequently Asked Questions
How do you become an auditor in Tennessee?
Most auditor roles in Tennessee require at least a bachelor's degree in accounting or finance, and many employers expect or prefer a Certified Public Accountant credential. The Tennessee State Board of Accountancy oversees CPA licensure in the state, and candidates must meet education and experience requirements before sitting for the Uniform CPA Examination. For internal audit roles, the Certified Internal Auditor designation from the Institute of Internal Auditors is also widely recognized by Tennessee employers.
How much do auditors make in Tennessee?
Auditors in Tennessee earn a median of about $76,840 a year, based on May 2025 Bureau of Labor Statistics wage data, ranging from around $49,920 for the lowest 10% to over $122,160 for the top 10%. Pay rises with experience, specialty, and employer.
Which companies hire auditors in Tennessee?
Employers hiring auditors in Tennessee right now include PICS Inventory Specialists, PM Hotel, and Hampton by Hilton, based on current listings on Migrate Mate as of September 2026. Tennessee's concentration of large healthcare systems, logistics companies, and government contractors means consistent year-round demand for both internal and external audit professionals.
Which Tennessee cities have the most auditor jobs?
Nashville, Franklin, and Knoxville have the highest concentration of auditor openings in Tennessee. Nashville dominates because of its dense cluster of healthcare headquarters, financial institutions, and corporate compliance departments, while Memphis draws audit demand from major logistics and distribution operations, and Knoxville reflects hiring from the Tennessee Valley Authority and university-affiliated organizations.
Are there remote auditor jobs in Tennessee?
Yes, and more than most fields. About 43% of auditor openings tied to Tennessee are remote or hybrid as of September 2026, reflecting the desk-based and analytical nature of most audit work. IT audit and internal audit advisory roles tend to be the most remote-compatible, while external audit positions requiring on-site client visits are more commonly in-person or hybrid.
How can I get hired as an auditor in Tennessee with little or no experience?
The most realistic entry path is applying for staff auditor or audit associate roles at Tennessee's large public accounting firms, which run structured new-graduate programs in Nashville and Memphis. HCA Healthcare and similar large systems hire audit rotational associates directly from Tennessee universities. Lateral entry from adjacent roles such as bookkeeper, financial analyst, or compliance coordinator is common, and earning an associate-level certification from the Institute of Internal Auditors strengthens early applications.
Where can I find and apply to auditor jobs in Tennessee?
You can find and apply to auditor jobs in Tennessee on Migrate Mate, which lists current openings from employers actively hiring in the state. Search the available roles, identify the ones that match your experience and preferred location, and apply directly to the positions that fit.
