PRODUCT DEVELOPMENT COORDINATOR
Highly motivated and experienced Insurance Product Development Coordinator
seeking to broaden her experience in the Insurance business or other
industry through marketing. I have five years experience coordinating
projects with various departments and ultimately developing the product in
Adobe InDesign CS-3 or coordinating changes with IT.
My extensive computer skills which include FrontPage were used to create an
Underwriting intranet website to facilitate the viewing of the Underwriting
Guidelines to Underwriters and Agents.
Being creative and innovative, several new product marketing brochures are
now used to create interest for insurance products in potential customers.
The Agents were granted Dental, AD&D, and Disability insurance due to my
ability to create and administer their rating, billing, and record keeping
program through AIG.
I am a bright multi-tasker who can handle several projects simultaneously
with accuracy and efficiency. I have an excellent work ethic and I am
willing to learn.
EXPERIENCE

Farm Bureau Mutual Insurance Company of Arkansas, Inc., Little Rock, AR
. Under my supervision, five separate policy booklets were developed and
published in five years with a new look and better coverages.
. The Underwriting intranet site not only provided the agency force with
underwriting guidelines but also training resources, a photo
directory, department bulletins and other important information.
. I updated several hundreds of form letters that had not been touched
for several years. I gave them a fresh look and a softer feel.
. I created many professional insurance forms in InDesign and saved the
company money by not having to outsource the artwork. Plus it allowed
us to have exactly what we wanted in our company forms, applications,
etc.
