Description

About the Role

Ignition Dealer Services is hiring a Insurance/Reinsurance Analyst with strong insurance accounting, policy administration, and claims reconciliation experience to support our growing portfolio of risk and insurance programs across a national dealership network.

This is a high-impact opportunity for someone with a background in insurance finance and/or reinsurance operations who thrives at the intersection of claims data, financial reporting, and cross-functional coordination. You’ll partner with brokers, legal, and internal accounting to build scalable systems for insurance program oversight, reinsurance tracking, and claims performance reporting.

Note: This is not a general data analyst or BI role. We’re specifically seeking candidates with a background in insurance and/or reinsurance, with experience reviewing policies, supporting claims workflows, and working with brokers or carriers.

What You’ll Do

Insurance Program Oversight

• Manage policy placements, renewals, endorsements, and claims across property, casualty, garage liability, and general liability programs
• Maintain organized documentation to support audits, compliance filings, and internal financial controls
• Serve as liaison between Ignition, brokers, underwriters, and carriers to ensure alignment between policies and operational needs

Reinsurance Tracking & Financial Reporting

• Administer reinsurance agreements and support premium allocation, recoverables, and cash flow tracking
• Reconcile internal records with carrier statements, ensuring accuracy in reinsurance premiums, ceding commissions, loss reserves, and payouts
• Collaborate with accounting on journal entries, month-end close activities, and audit prep involving reinsurance structures

Claims Analysis & Reporting

• Monitor and analyze claims data, exposures, loss runs, and reserve movements
• Build reports and dashboards in Excel, Power BI, or SQL to inform financial risk management decisions
• Track and reconcile claims recovery processes, coordinating across brokers, carriers, and legal as needed

Stakeholder Collaboration

• Partner with finance, legal, operations, and external brokers to support compliance, process improvements, and automation initiatives
• Participate in insurance audits, support regulatory filings, and contribute to SOPs for insurance program management

Requirements

What We’re Looking For

• 5+ years of experience in insurance, reinsurance, or insurance accounting
• Deep understanding of insurance contracts, reinsurance terms, claims data, and financial reconciliation
• Strong Excel skills (pivot tables, nested formulas, VLOOKUP); familiarity with SQL, Power BI, or Tableau is a plus
• Bachelor's degree in Accounting, Finance, Insurance, Risk Management, or a related field
• Detail-oriented, analytical thinker with excellent communication skills and a collaborative mindset
• Although this role is remote - you will be required to come to Delavan WI at times for training or meetings. 

Preferred Qualifications

• Experience working in a reinsurance company, insurance carrier, brokerage, or dealership insurance environment
• Familiarity with retrocession, ceding practices, loss triangles, and reinsurance recoverables
• Exposure to Schedule F reporting, dealer-owned warranty companies, or F&I-related reinsurance structures
