Sr. Director, Insurance & Risk Management

About the role

Jackson Healthcare and our family of companies provide healthcare systems, hospitals and medical facilities of all sizes with the skilled and specialized labor and technologies they need to deliver high quality patient care and achieve the best possible outcomes - while connecting healthcare professionals to the temporary engagements, contract assignments and permanent placement employment opportunities they desire. Headquartered in metro Atlanta, we're powered by more than 2,600 associates and over 20,000 clinician providers covering all 50 U.S. states. Our mission is to improve the delivery of patient care and the lives of everyone we touch. This includes the patients, clinicians and healthcare executives we work with through our companies every day, as well as our communities, the nonprofit organizations we support and each associate who is part of our family. We're always looking to add new talent to our teams. We value diverse professionals at all levels and across multiple disciplines and areas of expertise, who have strong leadership skills, align with our culture, and are committed to excellence. Jackson Healthcare has recently established a Georgia-based captive insurance program - a significant strategic investment that now sits at the heart of our enterprise risk financing structure. We are looking for a Senior Director who will partner with the Chief Risk Officer and key external advisors to help chart the strategic course for how that captive grows, evolves, and maximizes value across our insurance program over time. This is a hands-on leadership role in a lean, high-impact department. You will own the enterprise insurance and analytics function end-to-end - from captive strategy and actuarial interpretation to RMIS stewardship, executive reporting, and renewal oversight - while leading and developing two direct reports. You will work closely with the CRO, who remains actively engaged in strategy and leadership; this is a collaborative environment, not a solo assignment. You will have significant exposure to senior leadership and the opportunity to grow into a genuine strategic advisor to the business. The ideal candidate brings deep technical fluency in insurance, captives, and analytics - and pairs it with the curiosity, judgment, and communication skills to make that expertise useful at the executive table. If you are someone who asks "why do we do it this way?" and then does something about it, this role was designed with you in mind. What You Will Own Captive Strategy & Oversight The company's Georgia-based captive is new and full of potential. This role serves as the internal owner and primary point of coordination across the external captive management team, captive counsel, and insurance broker - translating their expertise into actionable strategy and governance for leadership. You will not do this alone; you will do it in close partnership with the CRO and the right external partners. Serve as the internal owner and day-to-day liaison with the external captive manager, captive counsel, and insurance broker, ensuring all parties are aligned and moving in the same direction. With close collaboration and support from the CRO and external advisors, help define and evolve the strategic direction of the captive - including growth opportunities, new lines of coverage, and program enhancements that increase flexibility and value. Oversee captive governance, compliance, regulatory filings, and financial reporting, ensuring adherence to domicile requirements with appropriate external support. Develop and maintain business plans, underwriting guidelines, and investment policies; prepare materials for captive board and executive committee meetings. Identify new opportunities to expand captive utilization across the enterprise and enhance the flexibility of the overall insurance program. Enterprise Insurance Program Insurance renewals are a shared effort: the Insurance Program Operations direct report leads day-to-day execution, and this role provides the strategic oversight, market perspective, and direction that makes that execution excellent. The Senior Director and direct report work closely together throughout the renewal cycle - and do so with close collaboration and support from the CRO. Partner actively with the Insurance Program Operations direct report on enterprise-wide insurance renewals across all lines - the direct report owns execution, and this role provides strategic guidance, broader perspective, and development support throughout the process. Bring broader thinking, market awareness, and a willingness to challenge the status quo to renewal strategy - questioning what has always been done and exploring what could work better. Manage broker, carrier, and actuary relationships at a senior level; serve as the point of accountability for program structure, coverage decisions, and risk transfer strategy - with close collaboration and support from the CRO.
