• Work directly with policyholders to build, improve, or refine safety plans and basic loss prevention practices appropriate for their operations.
• Partner with underwriting and territory managers to identify safety issues and demonstrate service capabilities for new business acquisitions and renewals.
• Provide actionable oversight of Loss Control inspection vendors, including quality review of vendor work and reports to ensure standards are met.

Share and Inform

• Provide input on recurring trends and exposures to help inform proactive, book‑level loss prevention initiatives.

Qualifications
