The business development department plays a critical and unique role in delivering on PLM’s purpose as a mutual insurer, which is to put customers first. These representatives serve as a direct access point to PLM across the country and work to build and maintain relationships directly with our insureds by delivering value in a variety of ways. The business development intern will be exposed to many of the core components of an insurance carrier, including sales, field underwriting, and loss control. During this internship, you will learn the various functions of the BDR role by assisting in the prospecting, new business, and retention processes through real-time scenarios. You will be exposed to internal and external communications, regularly communicating with underwriters, brokers, and insureds and can expect to spend some time on the road with local Business Development and Loss Control Representatives to practice learned technical and soft skills while meeting with customers and prospective customers.
