What makes you stand out:
  • Experience in insurance, risk management, or related professional services.
  • Relevant industry certifications (for example CPCU, ARM, RPLU) or advanced degree.
  • Established professional network and regular participation in industry events and conferences.
  • Track record of institutionalizing accounts and driving measurable year-over-year growth.
  • Willingness to travel occasionally to client sites and industry events.
