Executive search in this sector involves making a deep analysis to identify and assess qualified executives who possess track records of experience and skills to lead these organizations. Unlike other sectors, this one requires a specific set of competencies such as in-depth knowledge of risks and regulations, the ability to strategize, as well as the need to adapt to a sector that is constantly evolving.
A skilled leader in this industry must be able to manage and evaluate risks. They need to have an expertise in understanding the complexities of policy underwriting, claims management, and portfolio diversification, as well as reinsurance negotiation. This is where headhunting becomes an important aid to find the right leader with the needed skills.
