This individual oversees a third-party claim administrator handling a discontinued workers’ compensation program on Argo’s behalf.

The successful candidate must bring deep workers’ compensation claims expertise and the ability to immediately provide meaningful leadership, technical direction, and accountability to the TPA handling the workers’ compensation runoff program. This includes strong command of compensability, medical management, litigation strategy, reserving, settlement evaluation, return-to-work considerations, regulatory compliance, and claims cost containment. The candidate must also understand that runoff claims management requires a different operating mindset than active business, with emphasis on disciplined reserving, targeted closure strategies, leakage control, recovery opportunities, expense management, data quality, and achieving optimal financial outcomes while maintaining appropriate claims handling standards.

Maintain continuity and claim handling discipline during TPA adjuster transitions, staffing changes, file transfers, or runoff program changes.

Support onboarding and oversight of additional runoff programs as Clearbrook acquires new companies, portfolios, or lines of business, including transition planning, TPA implementation, claim file transfer, authority protocols, reporting expectations, and governance routines.
