Lead cross-functional initiatives and foster strong partnerships across Operations, Technology, Finance, Human Resources, and other enterprise functions to deliver strategic outcomes.
Ensure effective resource allocation, workforce planning, and budget management to optimize capacity and support evolving business priorities.
Establish and maintain strong risk management, compliance, and operational controls to ensure adherence to regulatory and organizational requirements.
Build, develop, and inspire high-performing teams by creating an inclusive culture of accountability, collaboration, continuous learning, and leadership excellence.
Coach and develop leaders, strengthen succession pipelines, and create opportunities for talent growth across the Claims organization.
Serve as a trusted advisor to senior leadership, providing strategic recommendations and insights that support the long-term evolution of Claims Operations.

A collaborative leadership style that balances challenge and support, creates alignment, and drives accountability for results.
A commitment to leading self, leading others, leading the business, and leading together by demonstrating accountability, developing people, fostering collaboration, and delivering meaningful business outcomes.
