We've built a sophisticated in-house technology stack, we operate at real scale, and we're small enough that the person in this seat will have direct exposure to leadership from day one.

This role owns the routine execution of carrier vetting and claims intake — the work that keeps Archer's carrier network safe, compliant, and audit-ready. It is not a sales or brokerage role. It is a detail-driven, process-driven seat for someone who takes pride in getting things right.

• Keep audit-ready documentation across every carrier file and claim

• Someone who is detailed and organized
• Comfortable with repetitive, deadline-driven work and staying accurate at volume
• Able to work independently after training, without needing constant direction
• Clear, concise written communicator
• Sound judgment under pressure — knows when to decide and when to escalate
