New RIMS president starts term, spells out challenges
30 January 2023
The Risk and Insurance Management Society (RIMS) says Jennifer Santiago will lead as President for the 2023 term.
Ms Santiago has been a RIMS member for more than 15 years, serving on its Board of Directors since 2014.
She is currently Director, Risk Management & Safety at Wakefern Food Corp, the largest retailer-owned cooperative in the US.
Her experience includes leading enterprise risk management, operational risk, ethics & compliance risk and insurance initiatives at Arthur J Gallagher Risk Management Services, RIMS said.
“The road to organisational resilience starts with leadership of the risk management professional,” Ms Santiago said.
“Around the world, risk professionals have taken the initiative, stepping up to lead strategies that empower smart decision-making and innovation.”
She says current risks show no sign of stabilising and this highly uncertain environment will require risk leaders to lean on each other, to share experiences and embrace diverse thoughts and perspectives to successfully address them.
“RIMS is an invaluable platform for risk management collaboration, and I am honoured to help ensure that it continues to deliver opportunities that unite, inspire and build a safer, more resilient world.”
