  • Solides compétences en évaluation des risques médicaux et financiers
  • Capacité démontrée à gérer des volumes élevés tout en maintenant la qualité et la constance
  • Excellente attention aux détails et solides compétences en analyse documentaire

  • Expérience avec le Guide mondial de souscription de RGA (GUM)
  • Capacité à travailler avec assurance selon des lignes directrices définies et des cadres d’escalade établis

Pourquoi ce rôle ?

  • 100 % télétravail (doit être situé(e) au Canada)
  • Taux horaire concurrentiel (au‑dessus du marché) avec un fort potentiel de revenus annuels
