Commercial Insurance Account Manager (Construction/Architects)

Remote US Based

Greyling Insurance Brokerage & Risk Consulting, a division of EPIC, is a specialty insurance brokerage and risk consulting firm focused on construction and design professionals. What differentiates us is our construction industry expertise. Our leaders have prior experience as practicing construction lawyers (in-house and outside), engineers, consultants, and underwriters – giving us a unique and unmatched insight into how A/E firms operate, deliver projects, and manage risks. With respect to insurance, we place many of our largest clients who qualify in highly profitable group captive programs that have saved millions, and we do so for more A/E firms than all other insurance brokers combined.

We’ve been so successful, that now we’re looking to grow our team!

 

JOB OVERVIEW:

We have a new book of business to support in the Seattle, WA area. We are hiring a Commercial Insurance Account Manager to service the book. The Account Manager will be the primary client contact and will be expected to actively cultivate, improve and cement positive client relationships and use appropriate company resources in performing these functions.  While the Account Manager will work with new clients produced by others, the Account Manager will not be expected to develop new business. The Account Manager’s main function is to: provide day-to-day client service, manage the renewal process for existing clients, and manage the intake and establishment of new clients.

 

WHAT WE’RE LOOKING FOR:

  • LOCATION: This will start out as a work-from-home role, however we anticipate opening an office in Seattle sometime in 2025. At that time this will become a hybrid role, so we're only considering qualified candidates in Washington State at this time, preferably in the Seattle area.

Why are you being asked to complete this form?

We are a federal contractor or subcontractor. The law requires us to provide equal employment opportunity to qualified people with disabilities. We have a goal of having at least 7% of our workers as people with disabilities. The law says we must measure our progress towards this goal. To do this, we must ask applicants and employees if they have a disability or have ever had one. People can become disabled, so we need to ask this question at least every five years.

Completing this form is voluntary, and we hope that you will choose to do so. Your answer is confidential. No one who makes hiring decisions will see it. Your decision to complete the form and your answer will not harm you in any way. If you want to learn more about the law or this form, visit the U.S. Department of Labor’s Office of Federal Contract Compliance Programs (OFCCP) website at www.dol.gov/ofccp.
