  • Serve as key client liaison for all critical policy and program changes.
  • Receive and resolve routine and sophisticated coverage inquiries, escalating appropriately and following through to resolution.

Renewal & Placement Support
  • Contribute meaningfully to renewal strategy conversations alongside Risk Advisors, offering informed perspectives on coverage, market conditions, and client priorities.

Reporting & Presentations
  • Gather and analyze data to draft stewardship reports, client presentations, and other strategic deliverables tailored to the audience and circumstances.
  • Ensure all client-facing materials reflect the highest standard of quality, accuracy, and professionalism.

Team Mentorship & Standards
  • Serve as a go-to resource for junior Client Service Managers, providing guidance on complex accounts, process questions, and professional development.
  • Help onboard new CSM team members by sharing institutional knowledge, tools, and best practices.
  • Partner with leadership to identify process improvements and contribute to the evolution of service delivery standards across the team.

Who You Are:
  • 4+ years of commercial insurance experience required, with a strong track record in an Account Management or Client Service role.
  • Property & Casualty broker's license required (or to be obtained within 60 days of start date).
  • Demonstrated experience managing complex, high-value client relationships with minimal oversight.
  • Strong organizational skills with the ability to manage multiple priorities, deadlines, and stakeholders simultaneously.
  • Excellent written and verbal communication skills; confident presenting to clients at all levels.
