Our Impact in the Reinsurance Market
A dynamic and renowned innovator in the reinsurance broking space, Guy Carpenter helps insurance companies find new ways to manage their risk. As a reinsurance intermediary, Guy Carpenter’s colleagues are offered a unique opportunity to pursue a career that marries investment banking and consulting. Similar to an investment bank, we broker a specific type of financial transaction called reinsurance. Comparable to a consulting firm, we leverage our reinsurance expertise to help our clients anticipate and navigate change, providing them with a business edge that goes beyond the insurance transaction. Our full company platform includes broking expertise, strategic advisory services, and best-in-class analytics, giving insurers the confidence they need to grow and protect their business. 

We thrive on working together, harnessing our collective intelligence across teams, borders, and backgrounds. We are looking for an individual who is proactive, innovative, a self-starter and enjoys building relationships with clients, reinsurers and colleagues.

What is Reinsurance?

Reinsurance is a risk transfer agreement that is often referred to as “insurance for insurance companies.” Insurance companies purchase reinsurance from other carriers to protect against the risk of a major claims event. Guy Carpenter supports insurance companies as they navigate the market to find the best reinsurance solutions for their needs. Given the important role we play in global risk mitigation, we enable insurance companies the opportunity to protect individuals against unforeseen loss.
