Are you ready to make an impact?

West Monroe is hiring a Manager with prior consulting project management experience to join our growing Insurance practice in our Chicago office.

Our team assists carriers and brokerages uncovering opportunities, developing clear roadmaps, and working toward improved outcomes.
