Administration & Quality Control

  • Manage the end-to-end Certificates of Insurance process, including request verification, generation, carrier submission for approval, and final client delivery.
  • Conduct quality control reviews of all new business and renewal policy documents against original quotes / binders. Flag discrepancies, and ensure final policy documents are accurately delivered to the client.

  • Utilize HubSpot to establish and manage follow-up tasks, ensuring all policy changes and endorsements are processed in a timely manner.
  • Process finalized endorsements and coordinate with the finance team to send payment instructions for any resulting additional or return premiums.
  • Account and Claims Coordination

  • Complete the internal claims intake form, report the claim promptly to the appropriate insurance carrier, and track progress by following up with adjusters and Account Executives (AEs) for updates.
  • Proactively monitor overdue policy documents, follow up with carriers, and provide internal status updates.
  • Assist with general administrative tasks related to client onboarding, policy management, and servicing of the commercial book of business.
  • Skills & Qualifications

  • 1-2 years proven administrative experience, preferably within a commercial insurance or financial services environment
  • Strong ability to build relationships, provide exceptional service, and create a seamless insurance experience.
  • Exceptional attention to detail and the ability to manage multiple clients, deadlines, and policies at once.
  • Proficient in using agency management systems and CRM software (Acturis, HubSpot, or similar). Demonstrated ability to quickly learn and adopt new technologies and internal platforms is essential.
  • Excellent written and verbal communication skills and a collaborative approach for effective partnership with clients, carriers, and internal teams.
