Marine Account Executive/Jr. Producer

The Account Executive / Jr Producer is responsible for managing a portfolio of Commercial Marine accounts, focusing on client service, business development, and strategic placement of insurance solutions.

As this role transitions into a more of a Producer capacity, the AE will focus on identifying and developing new business opportunities within the Commercial Marine sector, leveraging industry expertise and relationships to drive growth.
