Unclaimed Property Case Manager

About the Role

The Return Assets Division is seeking a meticulous Case Manager specialized in forensic genealogy, heir location, and asset recovery. This is not an administrative role; it is an investigative position focused on identifying, proving, and recovering dormant assets held by State Unclaimed Property Offices.

As a Case Manager, you will take the lead on complex "decedent accounts"—cases where the original asset owner has passed away, often leaving behind substantial unclaimed funds without a clear path of succession. You will use a combination of deep-dive public records research and advanced OSINT tactics to build exhaustive family lineages. Your primary mission is to construct bulletproof heirship tables and compile the exact documentary chains required by state controllers to prove ownership and successfully release funds.

What You Will Do (The Mission)

• Architect the Lineage: Take ownership of unclaimed property files from initial data discovery through to final state payout, managing the end-to-end estate and kinship investigation.
• Construct Heirship Tables: Research, design, and draft legally binding, court-ready family trees and heirship tables mapping line of descent under varied state intestacy laws.
• Conduct Forensic Genealogy: Pore over historical and modern vital statistics—including birth, marriage, divorce, and death certificates, federal census data, probate files, and immigration manifests—to verify kinship.
• Execute Targeted OSINT & Skip-Tracing: Deploy advanced OSINT, social media intelligence (SOCMINT), and proprietary locational databases to track down missing, estranged, or unknown heirs globally and establish contact.
• Build State Claim Packages: Review strict, state-specific evidence requirements to systematically compile identification, probate orders, small estate affidavits, and continuity-of-address proofs.
• Navigate State Audits: Act as the primary liaison with State Unclaimed Property Offices,
