Authority Launches Risk Managers Committee
The California JPIA is pleased to announce the creation of the Risk Managers Committee. This committee is designed to carry the voice of member risk managers and support the multi-faceted roles risk managers play within their organizations. The newly formed Risk Managers Committee will join the Managers and Finance Officers Committees as advisory to the Executive Committee in supporting key roles within member agencies, while providing guidance and recommendations to Authority staff.
“At the Authority, we take pride in the best-in-class service we provide our members,” said Chief Executive Officer Jon Shull. “The addition of a Risk Managers Committee enhances our connection to members and further develops our understanding of the services they need. This committee provides another avenue for Authority staff to support risk managers in their work to reduce overall risk for their agency.”
The committee’s purpose is to ensure the delivery of the best risk management solutions to members, and to better understand and assist risk managers with operational risk exposures within their organizations.
“I am very excited that the Authority has created the Risk Managers Committee and that I get to participate,” said Big Bear Lake Administrative Analyst Rachel Bowman. “Being a part of this committee will allow me to make practical contributions to the Authority’s risk strategies as a whole and to my organization, as well.”
The inaugural meeting of the Risk Managers Committee will be held on Monday, May 16, at 12:00 p.m. via a hybrid format. Members may attend online via Zoom or at the Authority’s La Palma campus. Each member agency will have a representative on the committee, which meets quarterly.
