Advise on risk implications related to lease terms, new acquisitions, and development projects.
Maintain a strong understanding of state-specific insurance regulations, with an emphasis on New Jersey, while also providing insight into requirements in other markets as needed.
Proactively identify potential areas of exposure and propose measures to mitigate risk.
Track policy renewals, claims, and performance metrics, working closely with internal accounting and operations teams.
Minimum of 10 years of experience in insurance and/or risk management, ideally with a strong real estate focus.
Deep understanding of commercial property insurance, lease compliance, and risk analysis.
Familiarity with insurance considerations across multiple asset types (e.g., industrial, retail, solar).
Demonstrated ability to work independently and manage a wide scope of responsibilities across a distributed portfolio.
Strong interpersonal and communication skills, with the ability to engage effectively with internal stakeholders and external advisors.
