Senior Lead Specialist - Risk Analytics

Introduction


Overview

Gallagher Specialty is the brand name for the wholesale broking division of Arthur J. Gallagher & Co. – a
division that is headquartered in London and covers territories outside of the United States stretching from the
UK to Australia, from Canada to the Caribbean, and from Latin America to Asia, employing more than 6500
staff.

Founded by Arthur J. Gallagher in Chicago in 1927, Gallagher has grown to be one of the leading insurance
brokerage, risk management, and HR & benefits consulting companies in the world. With significant reach
internationally, our organization employs over 71,000 people and our global network provides services in
more than 130 countries.

Gallagher Specialty delivers industry insurance solutions through Lloyd's of London and international
markets, creating programs for complex risks. With nearly a century of family-run integrity, our employees
prioritise client needs, offering risk management, consulting, and analytics to multinational clients worldwide.

Whether we are addressing the needs of individuals, small businesses or international conglomerates, our
people, our technical expertise and our global reach deliver first-class coverage, risk management advice and
placement expertise.

At Gallagher, we are proud to be specialist not standard, regional not remote — and of our ability to put our
clients, not our products, at the centre of our operations.

Exposure Management is a high profile and continuously growing area of the Gallagher Specialty business.
The team works closely with the various Gallagher Specialty business units, which includes US Property,
International property, Facilities, Natural Resources, Marine, Construction, Financial Lines, along with the
Gallagher US Retail as well as various Gallagher retail offices globally, to assist clients in managing their
exposure data, using RMS and AIR catastrophe models to ensure clients have the correct cover in the correct
locations. The role also involves the visualisation of data and facility catastrophe modelling.

We also work closely with Lloyds and London Market Insurers to provide exposure data and modelled losses
on singular and at a portfolio level, which includes binders and facilities
