Quick update on some of our open positions!

I just posted a new opportunity for a Business Services Representative. The Business Service Representative, or BSR as we call it internally, is a great opportunity for folks with strong PC/software skills, math aptitude, excellent communication and customer service skills and the ability to type 35 wpm to join our company. No specific insurance experience is required which opens the door to far more candidates than our openings that do require a specific industry background. The BSR role is also one from which we routinely promote to higher level positions.

As mentioned above, some of our job postings do require specific industry backgrounds and I had posted one of these a couple of days ago. We are looking for an experienced Marketing Representative who brings a Bachelor's Degree or equivalent work experience along with prior marketing and sales experience in the insurance industry with proven results. Property/casualty insurance and/or Colorado agent and Safety Group program experience is required for this position.

We also have a variety of other opportunities including Ruby and Java Developers and Nurse Case Managers among others. You can always see a complete list of our opportunities at our company website.

Pinnacol expands its presence on Western Slope

Pinnacol's new Grand Junction offices recently had their Grand Opening. We've had an office in Grand Junction since 1993 but with 5,000 square feet of space the new location now includes additional meeting and training space. Our CEO, Phil Kalin, was in town to celebrate the Grand Opening and he pointed out that Pinnacol covers nearly 7,000 policyholders in western Colorado. Pinnacol is also allowing the Western Slope Safety Council to use the new office's training space at no charge.

I was out in Grand Junction a couple of months ago when we were hiring for a new Business Services Representative and had an early peek at the new offices and they are very nice. To see some local coverage of the Grand Opening click here to see a local T.V. segment or here to read  more.
