Careers

Since joining Optimum two years ago, I have made tremendous progress thanks to the availability and assistance offered by the management and senior staff. Working in the administrative support team, I have been able to work with many different departments, all of whom are welcoming and helpful to my professional growth. Optimum’s friendly and positive atmosphere is very appreciative, as is the attention the company pays to its employees, including events and recognition throughout the year.

I started at Optimum a few years ago, I have learned and grown a lot. The management and senior staff are always accessible and quick to help in any way they can. Working on the administrative support team has allowed me to work with many different departments, and every person I have met has been helpful and welcoming of my professional growth. The atmosphere at Optimum is always friendly and encouraging. I also appreciate the time and effort Optimum puts into its employees through events and recognition throughout the year.

My long tenure with Optimum has awarded me the experience of many intricacies of Reinsurance. From operations, actuarial, underwriting, treaties, and product development, I have been fortunate to work with the best industry has to offer and for an amazing company founded on strong financial principles. 

As reinsurance underwriter for 11 years, I have experience with a wide range of cases in terms of product type, medical/financial history, or targeted markets. I have to thank my growth of expertise in the area of underwriting from working with Optimum’s large portfolio of client companies over the years. 

Starting my career with Optimum has given me the opportunity to work closely with senior management. This helped me learn not only the actuarial side of pricing life reinsurance but the business side as well.

After 30 years in the industry, I’ve had the benefit of working with fantastic people in the direct, brokerage, vendor, risk management, project and legal areas of several of the large carriers.  I am now fortunate to experience the reinsurance side of the industry, at an amazing company, with talented people. 

The past 6 years at Optimum have been amazing. I am grateful to work for a company that treats me like a human being and not an employee number; it is priceless and I would not trade it for anythingin the world. I truly appreciate the family atmosphere, which is hard to find in the workplace nowadays. I enjoyed each event the company organize for employees year after year.
