About the Job

Requirements

  • A bachelor's degree in Mechanical, Electrical, Chemical, Civil, or Fire Protection Engineering, or a related technical discipline.
  • Experience in property loss prevention, risk engineering, industrial engineering, or insurance carrier engineering.
  • Strong knowledge of commercial and industrial property loss-prevention principles, including fire protection, natural hazards, equipment breakdown, utilities, and business interruption exposures.
  • Familiarity with National Fire Protection Association (NFPA) standards and major property insurer engineering guidelines.
  • Strong written and verbal communication skills, including the ability to influence senior leaders and collaborate across functions and geographies.

Responsibilities

  • Partner with site leadership, Facilities, Engineering, Environmental Health and Safety (EHS), and other stakeholders to identify and evaluate property and business interruption exposures across pharmaceutical manufacturing, medical device, research and development, warehouse, laboratory, and office locations.
  • Assess exposures involving fire protection, natural hazards, equipment breakdown, utility reliability, process hazards, storage arrangements, construction, and other potential causes of property damage or operational disruption.
  • Prioritize loss-prevention investments based on exposure severity, business criticality, cost-benefit considerations, and potential impact on insurance program performance and pricing.
  • Serve as the company's primary technical point of contact for property insurance carrier engineering activities.
  • Coordinate carrier and third-party engineering visits with internal facilities and operations teams, ensuring visits are well planned, efficient, and focused on material risk issues.
  • Review engineering reports and loss-prevention recommendations for technical accuracy, practicality, risk-reduction value, and cost-effectiveness.
  • Constructively challenge property insurer recommendations that are unsupported, overly conservative, impractical, or disproportionate to the underlying exposure.
  • Maintain visibility into significant outstanding engineering recommendations and help prioritize remediation based on risk and financial impact.
  • Partner with internal Engineering, Construction, and Project Management teams during new construction, major expansions, renovations, and changes in facility use.
  • Provide loss-prevention input early in project development so sound property-protection principles can be incorporated during design rather than retrofitted after construction.
  • Review significant projects from a property risk and business interruption perspective and coordinate with insurance carriers and external engineering resources as appropriate.
  • Support placement and annual renewal of the company's global property insurance program, including developing technical information regarding the global property risk profile.
  • Translate facility engineering data into underwriting information that demonstrates facility quality, protection systems, risk-management practices, and investment in loss prevention.
  • Partner with the company's insurance broker to prepare property risk information for underwriting meetings and renewal negotiations.
  • Identify data, engineering improvements, and risk-management initiatives that can differentiate the company in the insurance marketplace and support favorable capacity, coverage, deductible, and premium outcomes.
  • Partner with internal stakeholders, brokers, adjusters, and insurers to support timely and effective resolution of insured property and business interruption claims.
  • Travel domestically and internationally to company facilities.

Desired Qualifications

  • Experience as a risk engineer or loss control consultant with a commercial property insurer, insurance broker, or large corporate insured with significant manufacturing operations.
  • Strong working knowledge of NFPA codes, major property insurer engineering standards, process safety management (PSM), and hazard evaluation techniques such as HAZOP or quantitative risk assessment (QRA).
  • Experience working with commercial property insurance programs, including underwriting submissions, renewal strategy, and property or business interruption claims.
  • Professional Engineer (PE) license or professional designations such as Certified Safety Professional (CSP) or Associate in Risk Management (ARM).
  • Professional certification in business continuity management, auditing, or a related discipline (e.g., CBCM or CBCLA).

About the Company

Johnson & Johnson

Makes prescription drugs and medical devices

Johnson & Johnson develops prescription medicines and makes medical devices for hospitals, and unlike most big drugmakers, it runs both businesses under one roof. In 2015, its Darzalex became the first antibody drug approved for multiple myeloma, a blood cancer. Its medicines treat cancer, immune diseases such as psoriasis, and mental illnesses such as depression, and patented drugs bring in most of its sales. Its MedTech unit makes heart pumps, catheters that treat irregular heartbeats, surgical sutures, and Acuvue contact lenses. It was founded in 1886 to make sterile surgical dressings, is based in New Brunswick, New Jersey, and spun off its consumer brands, such as Tylenol and Band-Aid, as Kenvue in 2023.
