  • Claims Coordination – Serve as the primary contact for property insurance claims, working with adjusters and internal teams to manage and resolve losses effectively.
  • Broker & Carrier Relationships – Maintain strong partnerships with insurance brokers, agents, TPA’s and carriers to secure competitive coverage and pricing.
  • Contract Review & Advisory – Collaborate with legal teams to assess insurance requirements for leases, service agreements, and other business contracts.
  • Financial & Policy Audits – Oversee insurance-related payments, audits, and policy evaluations to ensure accuracy and compliance.
  • Team Leadership – Manage and mentor a Risk Management Assistant and Insurance Clerk, ensuring effective operations and documentation tracking.
  • Data & Reporting – Maintain insurance data, including property schedules, loss history, and liability exposures, supporting decision-making and marketing efforts.
