• Work with clients to develop or enhance safety and accident‑prevention programs, provide guidance on establishing safety policies, emergency procedures, and compliance with relevant regulations (OSHA, NFPA, environmental standards, etc.), and assist in developing or reviewing written safety programs and protocols.
• Serve as a technical risk consultant to Ascot underwriters for new business submissions, renewals, and mid‑term inquiries, communicating risk findings and professional opinions and participating in underwriting calls or meetings as needed.
• Act as a risk management advisor to insured clients, explain survey findings and recommended controls, and coach on implementing improvements to reduce accidents.
• Assist clients after significant incidents or claims by supporting or guiding investigations to determine root causes, analyzing incident reports and loss data to identify systemic issues, and providing corrective action recommendations to prevent recurrence.
• Prepare clear, detailed risk assessment reports summarizing risk profiles, observed hazards, existing controls, and recommended improvements for underwriters and, when appropriate, for insured clients.
• Stay current on emerging risks, regulatory changes, and best practices in loss control and risk engineering, and contribute to developing Ascot’s internal standards, resources, and training materials.
