Services

Many businesses rely on their insurance agent to provide insurance and risk management advice in addition to selling insurance policies. Depending upon the specific situation, doing so may be problematic.

As a suggestion, perform an internet search for positions posted at various companies using the words “Corporate Insurance Manager,” “Risk Manager,” “Insurance Analyst” or similar positions. Then compare the essential job duties of these positions with the duties of an “Insurance Sales Agent.” Note the differences and decide for yourself which position is best suited to help you achieve desired objectives related to your company’s insurance and risk management program.
