About The Position

At HUB International, we are a team of entrepreneurs. We believe in protecting and supporting the aspirations of individuals, families, and businesses. We help our clients evaluate their risks and develop solutions tailored to their needs. We believe in empowering our employees to learn, grow, and make a difference. Our structure enables our teams to maintain their own unique, regional culture while leveraging support and resources from our corporate centers of excellence. HUB is a global insurance and employee benefits broker, providing a boundaryless array of business insurance, employee benefits, risk services, personal insurance, retirement, and private wealth management products and services. With over $5 billion in revenue and almost 20,000 employees in 700 offices throughout North America, HUB has grown substantially, in part due to our industry leading success in mergers and acquisitions. About the Role HUB International's Risk Services Division partners with clients across manufacturing, construction, and a broad range of industries to turn risk management from a cost center into a competitive advantage.

If you thrive at the intersection of technical expertise, client relationships, and business development — and you're energized by working across industries — this is your next move.
