SPG Wholesale Divisional Leader

Wholesale Divisional Leader

Specialty Program Group (SPG) is a leading specialty insurance platform dedicated to delivering innovative insurance solutions. SPG acts in a holding company capacity, acquiring best-in-class specialty businesses to operate independently under discrete brands. We have grown from 5 employees to over 1100+ and $5+B Premium in just 10 years and we're just getting started.

As SPG continues to scale we need to align our wholesale brokerage operations in a way that recognizes that we are a $1B+ (and rapidly growing) wholesale brokerage company and develop all the resources, tools, best practices and policies and procedures that would exist of a broker of that size. This will allow each wholesale brokerage business and operation within the group to maximize its potential, learn from the expertise of others and put each of them in a position to scale their operations.

The Wholesale Divisional Leader will collaborate with each business with a focus on executive coaching, succession planning, M&A targeting, sales leadership, talent recruiting & carrier relations. The leader will establish best practices by developing / investing in resources, exchanging ideas, and managing and monitoring performance across all wholesale brokerage operations. The position reports to the President and EVP of SPG. This executive will lead the wholesale distribution of SPG's niche programs, aligning resources, building best practices, and fostering collaboration across locally managed businesses. The role is focused on maximizing performance, enhancing market visibility, and supporting entrepreneurial innovation across the division. The individual specialties will continue to be locally managed, but we will strive to raise the bar in terms of expectations and benchmarks for success, providing the necessary resources and expertise to help them achieve their goals.
