    • Manage and monitor caseload activity, leveraging available tools and resources to ensure timely progression and high‑quality outcomes.
    • Maintain consistent, professional engagement with insureds, brokers, and external partners to promote collaboration and transparency.
    • Offer underwriting teams actionable claim intelligence, trends, and exposure insights to support informed decision‑making.
    • Offer timely and comprehensive support to the AVP as business needs arise
    • Roundtable cases going to Mediation, Trial and Arbitration
