MOUNTAIN VIEW, Calif., Jan. 22, 2007 — John Miller, Chief Executive Officer of Lawson-Hawks Insurance Associates, announced the recent addition of Rosa Soria as a Senior Client Account Manager, Employee Benefits Department for the Mountain View, CA-based insurance intermediary and broker.
"With our sustained growth in the Employee Benefits marketplace, the addition of someone with Ms. Soria's background, experience and industry knowledge is an invaluable acquisition for both our clients and the company itself," said Miller. "Lawson-Hawks has consistently assembled professional advisors and client account managers for its diversified customer base. The fact that Ms. Soria comes to us with authoritative credentials in dealing with public entity and Joint Power Authorities and other unique client models will serve to further address our marketing and consulting initiatives in these sectors."
Ms. Soria has over five years experience in providing full-service support to her clients and Associated Brokers. Additionally, she has served as a liaison between clients and carrier representatives. Her experience includes installation and orientation of new employee benefit plans, contract and/or plan changes, coordinating and presenting open enrollment materials, organizing and facilitating Joint Power Authority executive meetings and JPA Insurance Committee meetings. She has additionally served as a resource to clients in creating and managing client-sponsored wellness programs and has acted as the hostess of plan administration and new legislation workshops.
"I'm delighted to be affiliated with a customer-centric organization like Lawson-Hawks. While my primary responsibilities include collaborating with our clients to review, analyze and service existing and recently installed benefits programs, my experience has been that perhaps the greatest good that I can do for plan participants involves un-complicating the benefits and healthcare maze. Communication and delivering a positive experience are the keys to client satisfaction," added Ms. Soria.
The mother of five boys and one girl, Ms. Soria enjoys spending time with family and friends. An avid San Francisco 49ers and Giants fan, she prefers the baseball season both for the Bay Area weather and the duration.
