• Monitor Program Performance: Evaluate program performance across underwriting results, claims trends (e.g., cancellation, liability, weather, non-appearance), and operational metrics, identifying opportunities to optimize profitability, risk management, and customer value.
• Serve as Industry Subject Matter Expert: Act as Tint’s internal and external expert on the events insurance market, monitoring industry trends, regulatory developments, emerging risks, and evolving customer expectations.
• Represent Tint in the Market: Engage with carriers, brokers, event platforms, and industry groups to position Tint as a leader in innovative insurance solutions for the events industry.
