VP, Senior Client Manager, Public Sector Solutions

Public sector institutions across the United States are facing a profound shift in risk complexity. Climate volatility, infrastructure stress, fiscal constraints, and evolving federal support mechanisms are fundamentally changing how governments and other public sector entities think about resilience, recovery, and long-term financial stability. In this environment, leaders increasingly seek partners who can respond rapidly, engage proactively, and deliver integrated, forward-looking risk insights, analytics, and solutions.

Swiss Re’s Public Sector Solutions (PSS) team is designed to meet this challenge. PSS brings together Swiss Re’s reinsurance, insurance, alternative risk transfer and capital solutions, and risk data capabilities to serve public sector clients and brokers, helping them rethink how to understand, finance, and transfer risk. PSS plays a distinct role within Swiss Re, connecting public sector brokers and clients to our full capabilities to design solutions that fit their unique buying behaviors and complex stakeholder environments.

At Swiss Re, we apply deep expertise, intelligent data, and capital strength to help make the world more resilient. Public Sector Solutions offers a unique opportunity to combine commercial impact with public purpose — working at the intersection of government, markets, and risk innovation at a time when the sector needs it most. We are seeking an exceptional Senior Client Manager to join our team in shaping and delivering on these commitments.
