Job description

Are you driven by the thrill of closing a deal? Do you thrive on analyzing data and crafting proposals that outshine the competition? If so, Cottingham & Butler has an opportunity that could be your next big win.

We’re seeking an experienced Insurance Marketer—but not in the traditional sense. In this role, you’ll be the strategic force behind negotiating with insurance carriers to secure the most competitive pricing and coverage for our clients.

Beyond negotiation, you’ll dive deep into prospective clients’ current insurance programs, uncovering coverage gaps and missed opportunities left by their existing brokers. This is your chance to showcase the strength and precision of the Cottingham & Butler team—not just by telling clients we’re the best, but by proving it through smarter coverage and real savings.

Essential Functions:

• Researching and understanding client’s exposures

• Negotiate P&C insurance coverage terms, conditions and pricing with Underwriters
