Senior Product Analyst - Pet

The Senior Product Analyst for Pet Product Management supports the development and execution of market‑specific strategies that drive the pet insurance portfolio toward growth and profitability goals. Working under the guidance of the Director, Pet Product, this role contributes to financial planning, rate reviews, market development, and ongoing product communication tailored to the unique dynamics of the pet insurance market. The position strengthens strategic alignment by providing analytical insights, preparing planning materials, and coordinating initiatives that support pricing, underwriting appetite, product structure, and distribution strategies for pet products.

This role is essential to executing operating plans that achieve P&L objectives—including combined ratio, revenue growth, regulatory compliance, and competitive positioning. Success requires strong analytical skills, curiosity, and the ability to translate pet‑specific performance data into actionable insights that keep state strategies relevant, competitive, and responsive to customer and market needs.

·  Prepare and analyze reports on pet product performance, pricing competitiveness, underwriting trends, claims patterns, and market dynamics to identify risks and opportunities for each product.

·  Assist in developing planning documents and review materials for monthly and monthly pet insurance performance meetings, ensuring insights reflect state‑level conditions and pet‑specific trends.

·  Integrate competitive intelligence—such as competitor pricing, coverage features, underwriting appetite, and market shifts—into recommendations that inform pet product pricing and positioning.

·  Collaborate with cross‑functional teams (Marketing, Operations, Claims, Pricing, Underwriting, Legal, IT, Regulatory Solutions) to ensure timely execution of pet product enhancements, filings, and business initiatives.

·  Coordinate and track project timelines to help accelerate speed‑to‑market for pet product updates, rate filings, regulatory submissions, and system changes.

·  Communicate findings and recommendations clearly to the Pet Product Managers and stakeholders, tailoring messaging to leadership, cross‑functional partners, or technical audiences as needed.

·  Develop foundational knowledge of all pet insurance products—including regulatory environments, competitor strategies, and customer behaviors—to support informed decision‑making.

·  Participate in professional development and mentorship opportunities to continue building product management, analytical, and leadership skills within the pet insurance domain.

·  Perform additional responsibilities as assigned to support the advancement of pet product strategy and execution.
