What you’ll be doing:

 

Our Risk Consultants have a unique opportunity to conduct on-site inspections of some of the most architecturally significant residential properties in the country. During these visits you will be expected to identify and assess policyholder vulnerability to a variety of threats and then develop a customized plan for reducing the potential for loss. Additionally, you’ll be evaluating all structures on the property and establishing a pre-loss estimate for replicating their features. It’s not uncommon for consultants to be entrusted with assessing replacement values in excess of $5 million.

As a consultant, you will be expected to conduct a specified number of inspections each month and to routinely contribute to the profitability of the business.  You’ll balance this productivity with adherence to time service and product quality measurements.  You will also serve as a technical resource for our underwriting team on a range of personal security, loss prevention and collections management issues.  This expertise is conveyed to our policyholders and agents on-site and through successful execution of our personalized risk engineering and consultative based reporting services after each visit.

As a Risk Consultant you will be entrusted with immediate authority, work autonomously, and be directly accountable for your work product, all within the framework of a rapidly growing organization. The territory consists mostly of the New York City metropolitan area, but may assist with locations in Westchester County, Long Island and New Jersey.
