• Manage key insurer partners and general broking relationships.
• Onboard major clients into the Workplace Risk practice.
• Collate responses to Requests for Proposals (RFPs) in collaboration with subject matter experts across the national practice.
• Manage key client programs featuring alternate workers' compensation arrangements.
• Develop and execute strategies to further embed solutions and frameworks within the broader Workplace Risk practice

The Requirements

• Strong technical claims, premium, and self-insurance expertise across all Australasian jurisdictions
• Experience working across different large employer premium arrangements
• Experience consulting with jurisdictional workers' compensation and safety regulators
• Growth mindset with experience in financial modelling and feasibility analysis
• Ability to communicate, present, and influence all levels of the organisation, including executive and C-suite

• Excellent listening, negotiation, and presentation skills
• Excellent verbal and written communication skills
• Exceptional client relationship skills; ability to develop strong relationships quickly and maximise resources effectively to achieve goals
• Proven success working in a fast-paced, high-pressure environment and self-sufficient
• Strong organisational abilities and flexibility to work in a performance-driven environment managing multiple deliverables
• Tertiary education relating to Workers' Compensation, Injury Management, or Work Health & Safety will be highly regarded
• Education or training specific to sales, negotiations, or client relationship management will be highly regarded
