What You Will Do

Sales Leadership & Pipeline Generation

• With a relationship-based sales approach centered on long-term client accounts, personally originate, structure, and close large-scale consulting engagements.
• Architect and execute a disciplined growth strategy to produce a $200 million qualified pipeline over the next four years.
• Drive commercial excellence to achieve an initial 25% average conversion rate, actively implementing coaching, deal-structuring improvements, and sales enablement to improve win rates to 40% over time.
• Build commercial intelligence between the sales team, practice leaders, underwriting, and product development - creating a practice that learns faster and competes harder over time.

Market Strategy & Partner Origination

• Develop and refine Chubb''s consulting market narrative and competitive positioning - ensure Chubb''s consulting practice remains differentiated, commercially relevant, and ahead of the market.
• Build internal and external champions, serving as the account lead for tier-one global accounts, complex multi-practice pitches, and key industry partnerships.
• Represent Chubb''s consulting capabilities at conferences, executive summits, and industry events.

Deal Structuring & Commercial Innovation

• Collaborate with technical practice leaders and underwriting to structure commercially sound, multi-disciplinary engagements that solve critical asset reliability and strategic resilience challenges for manufacturers.
• Work with your team to develop new deal archetypes and scalable, repeatable go-to-market models.
• Foster a whole-enterprise approach to consulting with understanding of other services and insurance that Chubb delivers to top client accounts, embed client behavior change and risk mitigation into the core deal construct.

Matrixed Stakeholder Leadership

• Serve as the commercial connector between the technical advisory teams, Chubb''s existing distribution infrastructure, and underwriting leadership.
• Navigate a complex, matrixed environment with clarity of purpose and a bias toward action, aligning cross-functional priorities to mobilize resources for high-value deal pursuits.
• Partner deliberately with Chubb''s Commercial Lines field sales leadership, broker distribution network, and underwriting partners to ensure the consulting practice is fully embedded in Chubb''s enterprise account management process - operating as an integrated growth engine, not a standalone silo.
