Who We're Looking For

• You have extensive knowledge of risks associated with large commercial accounts emerging risks, cyber risk, regulatory and compliance risks, operational risks, etc. We prefer you have at least 5 years of commercial industry and product line experience with a strong understanding of commercial property and casualty insurance brokerage or agency experience in marketing, consulting and risk management.
