Liz Gilthorpe, President

Liz started her insurance career with Wawanesa Canada as a claims assistant, from there she moved to TD Meloche Monnex as a claims adjuster. From there she moved back to Dublin Ireland where she has worked with some of the largest global insurance companies on the casualty side. She returned to Canada and worked as a casualty claims manager with Zurich Insurance, Director of Risk Management & Insurance for Sears Canada and National Claims Manager of Cumis Insurance. Liz also ventured into business development within the restoration industry. As the President, Liz wears the most hats. Not literally, of course, but as the primary go to, she must be aware of many perspectives in order to ensure we are the best at what we do.
