Marsh

Description:

Vice-President — Life & Health (Corporate & Retention Lead — Medical Insurance) Location: Jeddah, Saudi Arabia | Full-time

Marsh is seeking a senior Life & Health professional to join our Jeddah office as the Corporate & Retention Lead for medical insurance, focused on high‑value corporate and key‑account B2B clients across Saudi Arabia.

This is a hands‑on, commercial role for a proven retention leader who can manage complex renewals (committee‑driven decision‑making), own client relationships, convert retention into new business opportunities, and quickly onboard and mentor a junior support resource.

What you’ll do

• Lead retention and relationship management for corporate medical accounts in Saudi (Jeddah focus).
• Own renewals, account governance and retention strategies for large, complex employers.
• Deliver technical input on medical pricing, underwriting and policy structuring.
• Build strong relationships with local insurers.
• Mentor a junior support resource and work independently with minimal supervision.
• Collaborate with local leadership to drive business development and account growth.

Who we’re looking for

• 5–7 years’ experience in corporate medical retention/account management.
• Strong track record managing high‑value, complex accounts (committees, multiple stakeholders).
• Background from brokers or large insurers (brokers preferred)
• Technical competence in medical pricing/underwriting/structuring.
• Ability to onboard quickly, work autonomously, and mentor juniors.
• Excellent communication and stakeholder management skills in English and Arabic (Arabic is mandatory).

Why this role stands out

• This is not a pure technical role and it is not a pure marketing role. It is a rare opportunity for a senior Life & Health professional who can operate at the intersection of technical expertise, market engagement, and business growth.
• The successful candidate will play a key role in shaping and expanding a strategically important business across the region.
