Monument Sports Group Adds New Hire

Pdf Summary

This announcement from Monument Sports Group, the CWA's exclusive US insurance partner, introduces Rebecca Bennett as their new Claims and Risk Management Manager. Bennett brings over 15 years of insurance claims handling experience, detailed substantively: during her time at Markel Insurance Company and James River Insurance Company, she reviewed coverage and contracts, investigated and evaluated claims, worked with the insured and defense counsel to protect the insured, negotiated settlements directly with claimants and their counsel, attended mediations and arbitrations, and managed claims that went to trial. That comprehensive claims background is framed as a decided advantage for CWA members who have grown to depend on Monument's dedicated insurance and risk management services. Bennett is described as excited to be working on the agency side and looking forward to helping the CWA program and members get superior representation, claim results, and climbing-specific risk management, that last phrase emphasizing the specialized, industry-tailored support Monument aims to provide. The announcement adds personal details: Bennett received her bachelor's degree in psychology from Radford University, is a proud mother of two adult children, enjoys volunteering for Richmond-area nonprofits supporting the arts, and loves watching sports. She looks forward to meeting members virtually or in person, and the piece invites members to reach out to her with claims or risk management questions. The throughline is that Monument strengthened its team with an experienced claims professional specifically to better serve CWA members' insurance and risk management needs. By highlighting Bennett's extensive, hands-on claims experience, coverage review, claim investigation, settlement negotiation, mediation, arbitration, and trial management, the announcement reassures members that a seasoned expert now handles the claims and risk management they depend on. For CWA members, the practical value is knowing an experienced, dedicated professional is available to help with claims and provide the climbing-specific risk management guidance that distinguishes the CWA insurance program.
