Markel Specialty launches risk solution services
Markel Specialty has launched Risk Solution Services, its newly expanded loss control department headed by Allison Elzer.
Elzer and her team will offer risk management solutions and collaborate with claims professionals and underwriters to navigate current and future risk trends.
Elzer joined Markel in July 2019 and has spent the last year overseeing the expansion and strengthening of the division's loss control department. Based in Philadelphia, she reports to Jane Peterson, Markel Specialty's chief underwriting officer.
Prior to joining Markel, she held positions as senior property and casualty risk engineer at Chubb and as senior loss control consultant for Gallagher Bassett Services.
Peterson said: "Loss control and risk engineering are important to Markel Specialty and our customers. Thanks to Allison's leadership and extensive industry experience, Markel Specialty's Risk Solution Services offering is well positioned to provide tremendous value to our producers and insureds."
Elzer commented: "The strength of Risk Solution Services lies in the deep understanding of the various industries we serve. I have been privileged to work with such an outstanding team of industry professionals over the last year. Through collaboration and teamwork, we have been able to build a great set of interactive resources for our customers."
"We have met the unique challenges brought on by COVID-19 by developing a suite of materials to help educate and prepare our partners and clients," she added. "Engaging in more lines than ever before, we intend to continue to find innovative ways to leverage technology and expertise to interact with our clients and partners."
