About Us
Fortifyโs roots are in restoration, and that foundation gives us credibility with carriers and policyholders alike.
But we believe restoration alone isnโt enough. The industry performs better when loss is prevented where possible and response is coordinated when itโs not. Fortify is building a platform that aligns insurance carriers, property owners, and service providers across prevention, response, restoration, and rebuild.
Through Fortifyโs growing portfolio of operating companiesโincluding Rytech, Insurcomm, and additional businesses we will bring into the ecosystemโthis alignment is delivered at scale.
The Role
The Strategic Account Manager is a relationship-driven sales professional who manages and grows national insurance carrier and TPA relationships across Fortify's platform. This role uniquely blends strategic relationship management with tactical executionโyou'll be both a strategic partner for key accounts and a hands-on executor who ensures exceptional customer service, smooth onboarding, and continuous program expansion.
You will spend the majority of your time managing existing national carrier and TPA partnershipsโhandling everything from day-to-day inquiries to strategic business reviewsโwhile dedicating 25โ50% of your time to pursuing new carrier and TPA relationships that will drive Fortify's growth.
This is a versatile, high-impact role for someone who thrives on building strong relationships, solving problems, and driving results. You understand that great account management requires both strategic thinking and flawless execution. You're comfortable engaging with operational contacts and program decision-makers alike. You bring the energy of a business developer with the discipline of a customer success professional.
The ideal candidate has experience in the insurance ecosystem, particularly with national carriers or TPAs, and understands the nuances of managed repair programs, vendor relationships, and multi-location service delivery.
This role reports to the Chief Commercial Officer and works closely with cross-functional teams across operations, regional leadership, and corporate functions.
