CHICAGO – An aging workforce, growth in job openings and low unemployment rate are creating an increasingly challenging and competitive talent market within the insurance industry. Greg Jacobson, co-chief executive officer of The Jacobson Group, will explore the factors contributing to this tight labor market, as well as provide strategies and best practices for recruiting and retaining the next generation of talent at the 2015 Alliance Investment Mid-Year Meeting in Oak Brook, Ill.

“The labor market within the industry is becoming more and more challenging,” said Jacobson. “Many factors are affecting talent availability industry-wide, creating significant recruitment and retention challenges.”

The session “Recruiting and Retaining Talent in Today’s Insurance Labor Market,” scheduled for 3:30 p.m. on June 4, 2015, will include analysis of the insurance employment situation, an inside look at developing labor trends, and a discussion of the challenges presented by the industry’s highly competitive labor market.
