JCW is partnering with a specialty P&C carrier that's making a serious, funded investment in its small commercial franchise.

- Appetite, pricing direction, and underwriting framework
- Distribution strategy and producer segmentation
- Organizational build‑out across a phased roadmap
What they’re looking for
- Strong small commercial background — BOP, commercial package, CPP
- Workers comp and/or commercial auto experience a significant plus
- P&L ownership mindset — carrier, MGA, or equivalent
- Track record of building, scaling, or transforming a commercial book
- Comfortable leading through influence before formal authority
