We're determined to make a difference and are proud to be an insurance company that goes well beyond coverages and policies. Working here means having every opportunity to achieve your goals - and to help others accomplish theirs, too. Join our team as we help shape the future.

These claims will involve both primary and excess coverages and often involve complex fact patterns requiring analysis of contracts between parties to determine indemnity and contribution obligations and risk transfer opportunities. As these claims are often in litigation, experience handling litigated matters and managing defense counsel is required, as is prior experience handling bodily injury claims. Excess claims handling experience is recommended but not required.

Managing a caseload of litigated and non-litigated construction bodily injury claims under commercial general liability policies.

Proactively managing litigation and counsel, inclusive of litigation planning and execution, budgeting and bill review.

Attending trials and mediations, as necessary.

Contributing to broader claim and enterprise goals by participating in audits, projects and product development initiatives.

Preparing comprehensive reports and delivering presentations to senior claim leadership on case developments, policy issues, industry trends, etc.

Working with business partners to evaluate and address claim trends and developments.

Addressing inquiries from agents and policyholders and providing superior customer service.

Bachelor's degree preferred, law degree a plus or commensurate experience

Minimum of seven years handling complex litigated bodily injury claims
