Diversity, Equity & Inclusion

Diversity, Equity & Inclusion

At CAC, our people are our greatest asset.

Our success is based on supporting our colleagues’ diverse array of experiences, talents, and ideas. We firmly believe that these contribute to smarter decision-making and improved outcomes, ultimately driving our success.

We embrace diversity of background, perspective, culture, and experience across our firm, including our employees, clients, partners and insurers. We firmly believe that diverse perspectives and collaboration among colleagues generate better ideas to solve the complex problems our clients face.

We believe that discussing, promoting, and engaging in DE&I work helps employees feel safe, respected, and more connected, leading to a strong sense of community at CAC Group.

  • “Our hiring philosophy revolves around the fundamental belief that talent is not limited to one group or location. As leaders, our responsibility is to find talent and to cultivate it. We are a diverse team of exceptional thinkers, challengers, and doers who make our organization better. Diversity aligns us better with clients and markets and plays a crucial role in guiding our growth and shaping the foundation of our firm.”

  • “When starting in this industry, I didn’t see a lot of people who looked like me or had my ethnic or cultural background. I naturally assumed I’d have to assimilate for my career to grow. However, after joining CAC Specialty, I quickly learned that we are proactively working towards changing this narrative. My unique background is cherished and respected.”
