About the role

Marsh in Chicago is seeking a Sr. Placement Specialist to lead umbrella and excess casualty placements for education clients. This hybrid role requires coordinating with client and production teams to deliver expert broking and tailored risk strategies. You will build carrier relationships, develop repeatable placement playbooks, and guide complex programs with tight timelines. A P&C license is required or obtainable, with 3–5+ years in casualty placement and a bachelor’s degree preferred.

Before you apply

Applying takes about a minute. These four things decide how fast it moves after that.

Your profile is current

It's what we read first. Occupations, seniority and locations matter more than a long history.

Two examples you can talk through

Not a portfolio — just two pieces of work where you can explain the decisions and what you'd change.

A number in mind

What you're on now and what would make you move. We negotiate better when we know both.

Your notice period

Employers plan around it, and it's the question that stalls offers most often.

Once you apply, someone reads it and calls you before anything reaches the employer — usually within two working days.
