Portfolio Oversight: Monitor and actively manage the assigned book of business, ensuring sustained profitability and adherence to evolving underwriting strategies.
Strategic Collaboration: Work closely with actuarial, claims, and catastrophe modeling teams to refine underwriting strategies and support product development.
Market Leadership: Develop and maintain strong relationships with brokers, agents, and clients to drive new business and ensure account retention.
Compliance: Review and approve all policy wordings and endorsements for accuracy and regulatory compliance.
