Position Overview We are seeking a Manager, Loss Control Engineer - Corporate Risk Management to join our Corporate Risk Management team and serve as the technical bridge among our global operations, Engineering and Construction teams, property insurance partners, brokers, and underwriters. This role will help protect Johnson & Johnson's facilities, people, and operations from property loss and business interruption by ensuring that loss-prevention investments are practical, risk-based, and economically sound. The successful candidate will combine strong property loss-prevention engineering expertise with business judgment and the ability to translate complex technical information into a clear and compelling risk story for senior leadership and the insurance marketplace. The Manager will also support the placement of Johnson & Johnson's global property insurance program and play a central role in resolving insured property and business interruption claims. This is a highly visible, cross-functional role requiring sound technical judgment, strong analytical capabilities, and the ability to influence internal and external stakeholders. Responsibilities: Property Loss Prevention & Business Resilience Partner with site leadership, Facilities, Engineering, Environmental Health and Safety (EHS), and other stakeholders to identify and evaluate property and business interruption exposures across pharmaceutical manufacturing, medical device, research and development, warehouse, laboratory, and office locations. Assess exposures involving fire protection, natural hazards, equipment breakdown, utility reliability, process hazards, storage arrangements, construction, and other potential causes of property damage or operational disruption. Prioritize loss-prevention investments based on exposure severity, business criticality, cost-benefit considerations, and potential impact on insurance program performance and pricing. Insurance Carrier Engineering Management Serve as the company's primary technical point of contact for property insurance carrier engineering activities. Coordinate carrier and third-party engineering visits with internal facilities and operations teams, ensuring that visits are well planned, efficient, and focused on material risk issues. Review engineering reports and loss-prevention recommendations for technical accuracy, practicality, risk-reduction value, and cost-effectiveness. Constructively challenge recommendations by our property insurer that are unsupported, overly conservative, impractical, or disproportionate to the underlying exposure. Maintain visibility into significant outstanding engineering recommendations and help prioritize remediation based on risk and financial impact. Capital Projects, Construction & Facility Expansion Partner with internal Engineering, Construction, and Project Management teams during new construction, major expansions, renovations, and changes in facility use. Provide loss-prevention input early in project development so that sound property-protection principles can be incorporated during design rather than retrofitted after construction. Review significant projects from a property risk and business interruption perspective and coordinate with insurance carriers and external engineering resources, as appropriate. Insurance Placement, Renewal & Claims Support the placement and annual renewal of the company's global property insurance program, including the development of high-quality technical information regarding the company's global property risk profile. Translate facility engineering data into clear, persuasive underwriting information that demonstrates the quality of the company's facilities, protection systems, risk-management practices, and ongoing investment in loss prevention. Partner with the company's insurance broker to prepare property risk information for underwriting meetings and renewal negotiations. Identify data, engineering improvements, and risk-management initiatives that can differentiate the company in the insurance marketplace and support favorable capacity, coverage, deductible, and premium outcomes. Partner with internal stakeholders, brokers, adjusters, and insurers to support the timely and effective resolution of insured property and business interruption claims. Qualifications: Bachelor's degree in Mechanical, Electrical, Chemical, Civil, or Fire Protection Engineering, or a related technical discipline. Required Skills & Experiences (including leadership traits) Experience in property loss prevention, risk engineering, industrial engineering, or insurance carrier engineering. Strong knowledge of commercial and industrial property loss-prevention principles, including fire protection, natural hazards, equipment breakdown, utilities, and business interruption exposures. Familiarity with recognized property loss-prevention standards and engineering practices, including National Fire Protection Association (NFPA) standards and major property insurer engineering guidelines. Excellent written and verbal communication skills, including the ability to influence senior leaders and collaborate effectively across functions and geographies. Preferred Skills & Experiences (including leadership traits) Experience as a risk engineer or loss control consultant with a commercial property insurer, insurance broker, or large corporate insured with significant manufacturing operations. Strong working knowledge of NFPA codes, major property insurer engineering standards, process safety management (PSM), and hazard evaluation techniques such as HAZOP or quantitative risk assessment (QRA). Experience working with commercial property insurance programs, including underwriting submissions, renewal strategy, and property or business interruption claims. Professional Engineer (PE) license or professional designations such as Certified Safety Professional (CSP) or Associate in Risk Management (ARM). Professional certification in business continuity management, auditing, or a related discipline (e.g., CBCM or CBCLA) Other: Domestic and international travel to company facilities is required.
